   We have serious doubts this function can really increase server security:
   1) Plesk has built-in protection against brute-force on login – it will lock the login form. So no one can try multiple attempts
   2) Arbitrary login name adds very little guess-complexity to a proper password. If you have concerns for your login brute-forced – add another 5-7 characters into your password and feel safe.

   As changed login name is still very likely to be some sort of vocabulary word or derived from your other account name – this function would only give a false sense of better security. Your security strength is in complex password, not in a complex login name. If you have one good password, you don’t need to treat login as your “second password” – one good password is enough.

   As for concerns that default password requirement is set in “weak”, that fail2ban module is not enabled by default or may consume extra resources, etc – they are much irrelevant here. If someone is not willing investing some time into setting better password, into changing password policy or into installing/enabling server protection – changed admin name will again be only a false sense of security. If a password is “1234567”, then login doesn’t really matter.
