1on1 Secure – AI Security, Anti-Spam, and Firewall


I am the developer of this plugin and I am not a customer.  I am leaving this review to balance the first review posted from someone who never registered the plugin and therefore could not have used it in order to honestly review it.I am excited about this project and look forward to helping honest people who install the plugin and actually use it.


A good start

BBQ Firewall – Fast & Powerful Firewall Security


I have made a living as a WP developer for close to 20 years and have almost seen it all during that time.  I manage a lot of sites for myself and for clients.  This is one of the most useful plugins that I have come across in the security space.



I liked it so much, I sprung for the Pro version which adds a few extra features.



Certainly, you could get by with .htaccess rules (either yourself, or with what Jeff provides), but this makes it much easier to implement.  I really have made use of the adding custom patterns feature, and the tracking of blocked attempts shows that this is very effective.



It's a simple plugin, really, which is what I like most.  As a WP developer, I could have written my own, but for what Jeff charges for the Pro version, it makes more sense to just buy his.



For the clown who rated it 1 star - that guy didn't really have a clue what he was talking about, and appeared to be someone who thinks he knows what he's talking about but doesn't - that's the most dangerous kind of administrator.  Seriously, this is exactly what a WAF is and is supposed to be, and it works great for what it is.  



Yes, there are other means of intrusion, and this plugin doesn't address those - it's not a "end-all-be-all" which is what I like about it.  Those plugins that try to do it all usually end up being complex, bloated, intrusive, and an all-around a pain to work with.  Instead, Jeff has produced a plugin that does one thing and does it perfectly with clean code and very light overhead.


Great lightweight security


After discovering this plugin, I use it all the time for smaller projects and sometimes for larger projects - doesn't seem to add too much overhead but gives great piece of mind. 


Great plugin - very handy.


BBQ is a lightweight plugin, install it and forget it!


Great plugin and fast support

The fastest firewall plugin for WordPress. Protect against a wide range of threats with minimal performance impact.
