Very less number of posts has been written for wordpress security. I was looking for making my wordpress installation more secure and found very little for WordPress security compared to other stuff on net.
I have tried "AskApache Password Protect" few days back, but it failed for some reason. I will check it again. I need to delete the .htaccess file created by it from wp-admin to remove its bad effect caused by failure.
