Does one thing: disables the “Application Passwords” feature.
Activate this plugin to completely disable the new Application Passwords functionality (added in WP version 5.6). To re-enable Application Passwords, simply deactivate the plugin.
Features
<ul>
<li>Lightweight – only one line of code.</li>
<li>Simple to use – activate and done.</li>
<li>No settings to worry about.</li>
<li>Easy peasy.</li>
</ul>
Why is this useful?
Because not every website is the same. Not every website needs this feature. Also disabling application passwords helps to limit unnecessary exposure and eliminate unwanted functionality (i.e., bloat). Whatever the reason, it is your choice. That’s the beauty of WordPress. So if, for whatever reason, you decide that application passwords should be disabled, this plugin will do it with a click.

Cloudflare provides security and optimization services for websites all around the internet. WordPress sites are often attacked by bots or hackers and, while Cloudflare has preset firewall rules to help, it doesn’t always filter out all malicious activity.
Cloudflare IP Blacklist allows WordPress admins to add a list of prohibited usernames and if someone attempts to log in with one of these usernames, this users IP address is automatically added to the Cloudflare blacklist. By doing this, the next time this user attempts to load the site, they will be blocked by Cloudflare before their requests get to your site’s server. Add an extra layer of security today to your site!
** This plugin relies on the use of Cloudflare, a third-party service that increases security and performance for web sites and services across the internet. For more information, visit the Cloudflare website and their privacy policy. This plugin is not officially endorsed, built or maintained by the Cloudflare team; rather, we are a development company that uses their services every day! **
