HTTP: WordPress Brute Force Login Attempt
This signature detects attempts to login to a WordPress blog repeatedly, which may be an indication of a "Brute-Force" attempt to guess valid credentials. It is recommended that this signature be used in conjunction with an "IP Action" of "Block IP" in your policy to prevent repeated attempts.
