You use the Plesk administrator username and password to log in to Plesk. By default, the Plesk administrator username is admin.

However, admin is a predictable username, which can be easily guessed and used in brute-force attacks. Along with a strong password, you can set a custom username as an additional layer of protection against brute-force attacks.

To change the Plesk administrator username:

  1. 打开位于此处的用于编辑的 panel.ini文件：

    • (Plesk for Linux) /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/panel.ini
    • (Plesk for Windows) %plesk_dir%admin\conf\panel.ini

    您还可以使用`Panel.ini Editor <https://www.plesk.com/extensions/panel-ini-editor/>`__ 扩展在Plesk界面中编辑该文件。

  2. 添加以下各行到``panel.ini``文件并将其保存：

    [login]
allowChangeAdminLogin=true

    You can now change the Plesk administrator username in the Plesk interface or via the CLI.

  3. 转入 我的个人资料 。

    image admin username

  4. The “Plesk Preferences” section now contains the “Username” text field. Change the default admin username to a custom one, and then click OK.

    注解: To change the Plesk username via the CLI, run the plesk bin admin --set-login <custom_username> command.

You now need to use the custom username to log in to Plesk.
