Block unauthenticated GET access to /wp/v2/users* (user enumeration control)

Feature

Block unauthenticated GET access to /wp/v2/users* (user enumeration control)

Description

User enumeration control.

How it works

AegisWAF applies this capability inside the API Shield module. The engine evaluates configuration, applies matching (path/method/tokens/counters/providers), then records evidence into the event log and executes the configured enforcement action when conditions are met.

How to access / Enable or disable

  • Access: AegisWAF → API Shield
  • Enable/Disable: Use the module toggle/switch on this screen (or the relevant category toggle) to enable/disable.

Recommended setting

Start conservative (LOG or Challenge) for new deployments; tighten to Block once you confirm low false positives.
