WFS WordPress - IP Firewall

WF SecurityCloud operates 201 sensors across 50+ countries that monitor and analyze cyber attacks in real-time. These sensors identify malicious IP addresses from actual attacks, which are then shared with all WFS WordPress installations through continuously updated blocklists.

No. WFS WordPress only receives IP blocklists from the sensor network - it does NOT share your site's attack data back to the network. The plugin functions purely as a firewall that benefits from global threat intelligence while keeping your data completely private.

IP blocklists are updated continuously as our 201 global sensors identify new threats. Your plugin automatically checks for and downloads updated blocklists regularly to ensure you're protected against the latest malicious IPs identified across the network.

WFS WordPress is an IP-based firewall that receives lists of known malicious IPs from our global sensor network and blocks them. WF Sentinel uses active traffic analysis to detect attack patterns regardless of IP address. Together they provide comprehensive protection: WFS blocks known bad actors, while Sentinel catches new attacks from unknown sources.

WFS WordPress uses AI-powered analysis and multiple verification steps before adding IPs to blocklists, minimizing false positives. The global sensor network ensures only genuinely malicious IPs are blocked. If a legitimate IP is mistakenly blocked, you can easily whitelist it in the plugin settings.

Absolutely! We highly recommend using both plugins together for maximum protection. WFS WordPress blocks known malicious IPs from the global network, while WF Sentinel detects attack patterns from any source through active traffic analysis. Together they provide comprehensive, layered security for your WordPress site.
