BotBlocker Security blocks 99% of automated attacks before WordPress even loads. No bloat, no slowdowns, no monthly fees for core protection.
If your site is hit by login brute force, spam comments, fake Googlebots, content scrapers, or XML-RPC floods, you are not alone: bots generate over 47% of all web traffic. Most security plugins react after WordPress boots, wasting CPU and memory on every bad request. BotBlocker stops them at the door.
<h4>Why site owners switch to BotBlocker</h4>
<ul>
<li>Faster than the competition. Runs on early init through three interception layers, before themes and plugins load. Server load drops during attacks instead of spiking.</li>
<li>Smarter CAPTCHA. 9 modes including Silent Auto-Verify – zero clicks for humans, hard wall for bots. Proprietary CAPTCHAs defeat AI-based solvers that crack reCAPTCHA for $2-3 per 1 000.</li>
<li>Honest free version. Full firewall, all 9 CAPTCHA modes, full 2FA, full logging, full Multisite support. No nag screens, no crippled features.</li>
<li>Privacy-first. No visitor data leaves your server. GDPR and CCPA compliant out of the box.</li>

</ul>
<h4>🛡️ Core Firewall (Free)</h4>
<ul>

<li>Web Application Firewall (WAF) with real-time rule updates via the BotBlocker Threat Defense Feed</li>
<li>2 899 User-Agent signatures – largest blacklist among WordPress plugins – covering Scrapy, Selenium, Puppeteer, PhantomJS, curl, wget, Python, Java, Perl, and SQL injection tools</li>
<li>Brute force protection with progressive lockouts – 5 attempts per 15 minutes, escalating bans for repeat offenders</li>
<li>Anti-spam for comments, registration, contact forms – spammers blocked before they connect</li>
<li>XML-RPC and REST API locked down by default with allowlist for trusted services</li>
