    You need a static IP for it. And you need to have a front-end user profiles editor if you have users on your site

    It is not sufficient for you site. You have to use subscribe plugin that prevent your site from harmful attack. You can choose any security program that work specifically.

    Can you elaborate on that because your statement makes no sense at all.

    I would use Wordfence As I have used it for many years with fantastic results. The free version even does a pretty good job if you don't want to pay for the full version.
    Also renaming the admin folder is a must.
