Add option to mitigate known vulnerabilities by default during installation of WordPress
There is an option in WP Toolkit to mitigate the Unauth. Blind SSRF vulnerability. However, this may only be applied only once WordPress has already been installed. Please add possibility to secure the instance in this regard (and any other vulnerabilities that might be found later, if such option is added to WP Toolkit) directly when installing WordPress.

Fail2Ban option to apply custom firewall rule to banned IPs
It would be great to have an option in Fail2ban to send the blocked IPs directly to a Custom Firewall Block Rule, to block these IPs permanently.

Improve Plesk Country Firewall Usability
Plesk Country Firewall
1) Add a check for duplicate country abbreviations on save.
2) (x) add checkbox to sort alphabetically
3) Add a drop down to select the country. Currently you have to look up the country 2 digit code. So add a drop down to select country then add the 2 digit abbreviation.1 voteMost ISO codes of rogue nations are well known. We think that changes to geo IP blocking are rarely needed. To keep development costs reasonably low, perfect comfort for rarely used features is not a priority. In a server's lifetime it may occur twice that this is changed, so we wonder how often this feature is used in your daily routine that the added comfort is required? Please comment how you determine the countries to be blocked and why you change countries often so that we understand your routine better and can provide a better product while trying to keep license prices low.

Plesk Admin Login - Enable IP Address Locking. In other words, like a firewall, specify the IP address source
Plesk Admin Login - Enable IP Address Locking. In other words, like a firewall, specify the IP address source.
This simply eliminates concerns about password hacking as a Dedicated IP (source location) can be specified just like Remote Desktop.

Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

Firewall, Remote Adress(es): input a lot of remote adresses at once.
In the Firewall settings, to input remote adress(es) to block or allow, it would be usefull, to input a lot of remote adresses, just to block or allow a whole company at once (after getting their adresses from ipinfo.io, for example).
Actually I get spam, check remote IP (at dnslytics.com for example) and block that IP, if wanted.
After getting a lot of these mails from IP adresses of the same company, I get the IP adresses from that company and block all the known IP ranges...one by one.
That could be 100s or more and take too much time.…2 votesThis is a valid request, so we'll look into it. There is no ETA at the moment, but we would really appreciate you voting for this request so that we can accurately assess its popularity relative to other features.

Deprecate clear domain names as home directory
Since plesk is storing each vhost as clear domain name, every user wit shell access is able to see which domains/customers are on this host, eg. with > getenv passwd
We know we can chroot the user but chroot is NOT a security feature and makes trouble with applications the user might expect (or the environment these applications expect) - and there is still a way to break out from the environment or new ways get discovered. Much afford for nothing in the end.
We do not want to put customers in containers, jails whatsoever to restrict the user access…

Iptables: Allow Rules via the shell
Our Intrusion prevention system CrowdSec adds one rule having a blacklist to Ipables.
If you manipulate the rules in the UI, Plesk rewrites all rules. Therefore manually added rules are no more available.
This could be fixed very simple by having an additional script, which will be called after saving the rules by the UI.
