try this, if this works for you.

1.) Go to wordpress.org/download/ and download the latest version of Wordpress and Install it., but before then you can use/install XAMPP Server and ensure that PHP and Mysql is installed and Working fine. As of writing,am using the latest Wordpress version which 5.5.1 and it can also works in all versions of Wordpress.

2.) Once Wordpress is installed and running, copy the application folder (typingdnaplugin) from github to Wordpress Plugins folder something like C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress_test\wp-content\plugins. Copy and paste it there.

3.) Go to your wordpress login Page and Login, if successful, it will take you to the admin Page to make some configurations.

Click on Plugin Links at Admin left side menu down. select plugin named TypingDNA Plugin and click on activate to install the plugin.
4.) Click on TypingDNA Plugin link at the left side page down.
5.) You will see three options
A.) View DNA Registered Users

B.) Add New New DNA Users

C.) DNA API Settings.

First, go to DNA API Settings to setup typing DNA API Keys and Secrets.
Secondly, Goto to Add New New DNA Users to register New User for TypingDNA Enrolments. The Application ensures that you enrolled at least twice as requested by TypingDNA Engineers.
You will need to enter your Wordpress Email Address and UserID. You can use your Wordpress Username as UserId.
Thirdly, View DNA Registered Users shows list of Typingdna Enrolled Users along with their Enrollment Counts. You can also Check Registered Users availability with typingDNA API. You can also delete the user leveraging TypingDNA API.

6.) Once done, You can logout and try to login Again with your Wordpress Credentials and see how your Admin/Users Page will be protected by TypingDNA.

7.) Once successfully login into Wordpress, you will be presented with a TypingDNA 2-Way Factor verification Form requesting you to type your Enrolled Email Address and UserId. but before then, If you try to Access the Wordpress Admin Page Eg:(yoursite.com/wordpress/wp-admin/), It will denied you access telling you that you have not been verified by TypingDNA.

8.) If Users Inputted data is successfully verified by TypingDNA API Call, then Wordpress Admin/Users will finally be granted access otherwise they will be denied access.
