## Description

Autonomous backend protection tool for WordPress version masking and login error
filtering. This standalone Free version functions fully on its own to hide the system
generator and customize authentication errors to shield the dashboard from brute-
force scanners. Please note: any advanced infrastructure hardening or extended backend
modifications are part of a separate custom development track provided exclusively
by the Rapid2004 Laboratory.

Changelog

#### 1.0

 * Initial release of the basic security framework.

=3.2
 * Code optimization, syntax fix, and stable deployment. * 3 free tests for
introductory acquaintance.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in the WordPress dashboard.

## FAQ

### Q1: There are many security plugins available. Why choose this one?

A1: Agreed, the market is saturated. However, unlike heavy plugins that weigh as
much as an iron bridge, mine does not assault the database with hundreds of queries,
does not probe the PHP version just in case, and does not spy on your admin movements.
It simply loads and executes.

### Q2: I am inexperienced. Can I install this plugin independently?

A2: Absolutely. A core design goal for both free and pro versions was simplicity.
You simply download, activate, and enjoy peace of mind. You rest while the plugin
secures the architecture.

### Q3: Are there any installation limits, expiration dates, or plugin dependencies?

A3: The Free version of Rapid2004 SH has no artificial limits. You can deploy it
on a personal site, a corporate network, or an e-commerce platform. There is only
one fundamental requirement: your project must run on WordPress, which you likely
already know if you are reading this.

### Q4: Why is my admin interface displaying the author’s signature and domain?

A4: The interface proudly displays the official signature of Volodymyr Novosolov
alongside the main domain rapid2004.biz.ua. If you trust my expertise enough to 
secure your core infrastructure with this plugin, perhaps you should skip searching
public developer forums for unreliable help to extend your site’s functionality.
For dedicated architecture expansions and custom standalone modifications, contact
the author directly through the secure gateway.
