I'm having a WordPress blog rather a site. I haven't used any virus or malware protection plug-in or a system. Is it possible that intruders can illegally access it? Doesn't WordPress offer a generic protection?

>>also while connecting to your site SFTP encryption should be used
These are some of the process so that you can make your website more secure from the potential threats.Hope you got your answers.
Does WordPress offer a generic protection to its sites?
If you have a WordPress blog site and you want to protect it against unauthorized access, try using a plug-in called Security-Protection. It is designed to protect WordPress sites against login, reset-password brute-force attack, and registration. The plug-in is easy to use. Just install it and it will automatically protect your site. To install the plug-in, download and install Security-Protection.
Next, activate Security-Protection in the Plugins page. The plug-in requires WordPress 3.0 and higher. It supports up to WordPress 5.0. The blocking algorithm of Security-Protection is based on two methods: “invisible js-captcha” and “invisible input trap”. The “invisible js-captcha” method is based on the idea that the user-agents of bots don’t have JavaScript.
The “invisible input trap” method, on the other hand, is based on the idea that the majority of bots will fill out inputs with name “URL” and “email”.
