Good Security Help
Does a good job of limiting login tries. Helps reduce spam logins and brute force attempts. The setup was simple and is running fine. Could be a bit more flexible, but still useful 👍
Very very effective. You can even see where the IP address trying to hack you
This plugin is first effective in blocking (limiting) login attempts from hackers. Second, it even shows you the IP address with its location.

WebTotem Security Reviews
Dishonest company, stay away
After a few years they created “new version” just to ditch lifetime users. Dishonest company, stay away.

Broken websites that don’t seem to be able to get fixed
I have two websites that run through Cloudflare/Ezoic and while support has been very nice coming back almost daily to try to resolve my issue. It appears that they simply can’t install their software
