I don't know whether it is correct or not. We can create best password so that we can prevent from brute force attacking. I think we can use .htaccess and .htpassword for hide some pages.

One unfortunate client of mine is stuck using IIS5 via their web host and I just wanted to LAUGH out loud. Heck, I was an ASP/SQL Server-7/IIS5 (and Index Server) developer back in '98 when I was an internship CompSci student in TDot (Toronto). That stuff is ANCIENT. Chryst!!! Also, I strongly believe that the WP development team should make HTTPS log-ins MANDATORY as well as for password changes in the Profile section. Baaaaad!! Thanks for the post though...great advice.
