Blocker Firewall - WordPress Security

Fake visitors, scraping tools and spam can clutter a site and expose it to attacks. Blocker Firewall checks incoming bots and separates legitimate search engine crawlers from spoofers that pretend to be them. Known tools such as WPScan and HTTrack, which hackers and scrapers often use, are blocked automatically. Spam referrals, comments and malicious email registrations are also stopped, which keeps the site cleaner.

The plugin keeps a log of suspicious and malicious activity, so you can see what was stopped and look into it. A statistics system reports on blocked users and bots. Setup uses simple settings that suit beginners and experienced users alike. The interface is responsive and retina ready, and the plugin is fully translation ready, including WPML and other translation plugins, which helps on multilingual sites.
