Help user hacking?

    Hi,

    When I login on WP, I see on the top-right: “Howdy, myusername”. Does it means that two people are connected on my account: me (myusername) and a hacker (Howdy)? I am new to WP and I have only one user (administrator but not called admin). I don’t see any other user added in “Users” menu.
    I see a lots of different login lockout in login attemps with different IP.

    Could you confirm I am hacked?
    What would be your advise to avoid this? I don’t even know if I can change my password without “Howdy” to see it?

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Sandrine

  • Check how many users are created in “users” list.

    yourdomain.com/wp-admin/users.php

    It seems that howdy is just a greeting in US english. I didn’t know. I have only one user, so it should be ok.
    Thanks for your help.
