<p>How it works.</p>
<p>The plugin monitors failed login attempts, if the limit is reached the users IP is added to a local banlist.<br />
The user is now blocked and can no longer attempt to login.</p>
<p>Every 24 hours the plugin will upload the blocker IPs and download a fresh list of all IPs blocked accross the network in the last 7 days.</p>
<p>If an IP is blocked on 3 or more servers its added the the global ban list and will be blocked on all servers using the plugin.</p>


WP-DenyHosts

<p>tinyShield is a security plugin for any WordPress site. It will monitor all incoming and outgoing connections to your site and block any malicious traffic that it identifies. It does this by tapping into our network of other WordPress sites that report malicious activity. Think herd immunity. The future of WordPress security is crowd sourced.</p>
<p><strong>A note to developers, only activate/register sites once they are on their final domains. If you alter the domain after you have activated it, tinyShield will not work correctly.</strong></p>
<p>There are two subscription levels tinyShield can use. By default all installs have access to community features.</p>
