that's vague of point, , that's fault of people doing pentest , pentest software.

but start http://codex.wordpress.org/brute_force_attacks , http://codex.wordpress.org/hardening_wordpress

in order restrict access admin area whitelisting ips 12.345.67.891 , 23.456.78.99 admin access, in .htaccess in wp-admin add:

options -indexes  order deny,allow deny allow 12.345.67.891 allow 23.456.78.99 deny

in root .htaccess

<files wp-login.php> order deny,allow deny allow 12.345.67.891 allow 23.456.78.99 deny </files>

if calculate range, can use, i.e. 12.345.67.0/24
