Wordfence Description

Wordfence comes with an endpoint firewall as well as a malware scanner. These were designed from the ground up to protect WordPress. Wordfence is protected by Threat Defense Feed, which provides it with the most recent firewall rules, malware signatures, and malicious IP addresses. Wordfence offers the most comprehensive security options available, rounded out by an array of additional features.

Wordfence runs on your server at the endpoint and provides better protection than cloud-based alternatives. Cloud firewalls can be bypassed, but have historically been vulnerable to data leaks. Wordfence firewall uses user identity information to implement over 85% of our firewall rules. This is something that cloud firewalls don’t have access too. Our firewall doesn't have to break end-to–end encryption like cloud solutions.

    All of a sudden killed my login capability

    Date: Jun 04 2021

    Summary: Good for years, and then dead in the water. Very frustrating! I had no idea what was causing the problem until I got professional help; it only takes one such incident to completely turn me against it. I can't trust it any more; will have to find an alternative.

    Positive: I used it for several years, and never had a problem. Periodic reports of actions taken are very interesting, but mean little to me because I'm not an IT person, nor am I a CS major.

    Negative: The latest update made it impossible for me to log in to my site for editing purposes -- had to get help to disable it, because I couldn't log in. What a shame...
