Brute Force Protection Settings

Login Time Restrictions

You can configure time-based restrictions to limit login attempts to specific hours of the day.

Control access to your WordPress site through IP-based restrictions.

Professional Firewall Protection

Our advanced firewall automatically protects your site by downloading updated threat lists from trusted security sources:

• FireHOL Level 1 - High-level protection
• Spamhaus DROP - Drop/Reroute rules
• Blocklist.de - All reports
• CINS Army List - Threat-rated IPs

How it works: The system automatically downloads updated threat lists from these trusted sources. When a suspicious address is detected, all associated IP addresses are downloaded and blocked instantly. The firewall then activates these options to protect your site.

Whitelisting Trusted IPs

Add trusted IP addresses that should never be blocked by security measures:

1. Go to Settings > Login Security > IP Management
2. Click "Add to Whitelist"
3. Enter the IP address or range

Blacklisting Malicious IPs

Manually block specific IP addresses or ranges:

1. Go to Settings > Login Security > IP Management
2. Click "Add to Blacklist"
3. Enter the IP address or range

1. Go to Settings > Login Security > Geographic Blocking
