Love this plugin

By Guido (Guido07111975) on December 3, 2023

I absolutely hate bloated plugins, so I love this one. It's simple and works as expected. Guess it's wise to use a plugin such as this one, against brute force attacks.

Exactly what is should be

Does what it says on the tin. Like another similar plugin before it became bloatware. The only feature I would request is the ability to send notifications to another email address, I like to keep my admin email clean.

Getting a lot better.

We had initial issues and tried again and it is working better.

Interesante

Se lo pone más dicícil a los hackers que quieren acceder a tu blog ya que les limita el número de accesos.

Not maintained but still works

Would be good to get new versions and fix possible security issues (if any), but it seems to still work.

Works very well

I don't know how and why, but this plugin still works really well.

Still works, and it still works well. (WP Version 4.9.8)

This plugin was provided by my host provider when I signed up with THOSTS in December 2017. Was considering deleting it, but, .. this is from it's log as of today 10/10/2018 IP Tried to log in as 91.200.12.28 pigsoft.net (4 lockouts), b92.co.uk (2 lockouts) 91.200.12.65 admin (1 lockout), b92.co.uk (1 lockout) 91.200.12.104 pigsoft.net (1 lockout) 91.200.12.157 b92.co.uk (2 lockouts) 27.151.92.51 dyandoss27289 (1 lockout) 86.49.188.134 admin (1 lockout) 146.185.223.160 admin (1 lockout) 211.245.31.111 michellz047609 (1 lockout) 170.238.36.26 admin (1 lockout) 91.200.12.56 b92.co.uk (4 lockouts) 185.63.254.15 admin (1 lockout) 91.200.12.35 b92.co.uk (5 lockouts), pigsoft.net (1 lockout) And so the list goes on, and one, and on, and on, .. China, Ukraine, France and the good old US of A to name just a few of the look up IPs I could be bothered to do. Script Jockies all of them, but they're not using brute force attacks: especially from reading some of the login (name) attacks that the web boys are using. Later on in that list, are some of the people I've mentioned in my posts: who aren't board members. Conclusion: This Plugin is worth it's weight in gold. Thanks for reading, Jessica: Praise be the ORI.
