<p>Web-Engine Sentry is a plugin that offers protection for comments, administrative login, and form submissions. While it won’t prevent human submissions, its primary objective is to make it challenging for automated programs to access your site.</p>

<p>This is a privacy-first plugin – no tracking or personal data is collected by our servers, beyond that necessary to account for your usage and authenticate you as a user.</p>
<p>This plugin utilizes the web-engine cloud services to generate challenges for your users to solve. This service offers a limited free service and will require registration to utilize.</p>
<p>The free option will allow you to test the service and assess its potential benefits for your organization. Each time a Captcha is successfully solved, a “credit” is charged. Pay as you go for what you use only and contribute fairly to maintaining the platform.</p>
<p>Please note that the basic Captchas generated for free outside the initial free credit can be easily solved by AI within a second. We strongly recommend upgrading to the paid service, which will generate more robust challenges providing enhanced protection and enabling our ongoing product development.</p>
<p>Our objective is to provide an intuitive and high-quality service.</p>
<p>Web-Engine Sentry has been thoroughly tested with the following plugins:</p>
<ul>
<li>Elementor</li>
<li>Contact Form 7</li>
<li>WPForms</li>
<li>Jetpack</li>
<li>Gutena Forms</li>
<li>WooCommerce (Login, register and checkout forms)</li>
</ul>

Wordfence Login Security

The Plugin works and integrates nicely into wordfence security and wp itself. TOTP works great, and the captcha integration works too. Sadly it doesn't support multiple 2fa methods like TOTP & "backup codes" as well as email as backup. Other 2fa methods like U2F are not supported. This Plugin doesn't work with the yubico yubikey hardware keys. 

Good, but somewhat limited

Good compliment to Wordfence, but please add login URL obfuscation!

Because you do not do this either I take another plugin as well like WPS Hide Login, or I just take WP Cerber which does everything!

Great, but...

Easy to use


Does not include the ability to limit login attempts, add password complexity requirements, or anything that would comprise modern security best practices. It's strictly a 2FA plugin, which is done more simply and better by other plugins. It does work tho.


Too much load for a simple 2FA plugin

Secure your website with Wordfence Login Security, providing two-factor authentication, login and registration CAPTCHA, and XML-RPC protection.
