Simple, Efectivo y Liviano / Simple, Effective and Light

Un plugin perfecto, cumple con lo necesario para dar una capa de seguridad a Wordpress. Limita el login, tiene lista blanca, un log de actividades de inicio de sesión y Captcha v2 y un par de simples configuraciones extras de seguridad.

Amazing plugin

akmster 18 February 2022
I started using this plugin a few weeks ago, cause I realized that my site is been under attack. It really helped me, getting a bit more calm about this condition, while giving me a nice overview about the logins and the tries. What I like most, is the amazingly easy setup. What I missed in the beginning was a more in deep documentation about how the features do their work in the background. But this isn’t an issue if you can ask the developer and he’s responding at once. Thanks for that amazing and free plugin. I can only recommend having a look at this, if one cares about security.

Fantastic plugin

Works really well and seems much more efficient than other plugins I tried. The feature I like most is getting notified when someone logs in to my account from a new device. I would like to be able to modify the email message that gets sent out though – not sure if that is possible?

Immediately Helpful

Just started using and was surprised of the number of bots attacking my site – seemingly every hour there was a different attack. It was good to be able to know this was happening and get some level of protection up quickly. Would recommend as the first line of defense.
