Basic Brute-Force Protection

Description: Limits repeated login attempts to reduce password-guessing attacks.

How it works: AegisShield counts failed attempts per IP/user and triggers lockouts when thresholds are exceeded.

How to access / configure:

  1. WP Admin → AegisShield → Login Guard.
  2. Ensure Login Guard is enabled.
  3. Configure Max Attempts and Lockout Duration (if available) and Save Changes.

Recommended setting: Start with 5 max attempts and 15 minutes lockout; tighten for high-risk sites.
