So far so good
-
Very simple and effective. While writing this review, one of my websites still is under the brute-force attack. About 14 hours ago I’ve noticed strange failed login stream and because I’m newbie in WP had to google for info. To my surprise non of the fancy protection and firewall plugins worked fully and I had to google for protection tips and defend my site manually for about 4 hours till I realized what my other website newer been in such trouble. There was only this plugin installed on my other website and did the trick. I had installed this plugin, setup white list and bad signatures in query and after half an hour went to bed.
When attack started, there was around 50 login attempts per minute and each of them from a different ip, after few hours I’ve managed to slow it down to around 5-7 failed logins per minute. After installation of IP Geo Block failed login attempts 0.
I think this plugin is a must have with other security stuff.
