Login Guard Module

Login Guard is a comprehensive WordPress login security layer that protects against brute-force attacks, automated bots, and account takeovers by enforcing smart lockouts, MFA, device trust, and behavioral rules at the authentication level. It actively monitors, enforces, and logs suspicious login activity so administrators gain both real-time protection and clear visibility into how and why access attempts are allowed or blocked.

AegisShield Login Guard stops brute-force attacks, blocks automated abuse, and protects administrator accounts with intelligent enforcement, multi-factor authentication, and full visibility into every login attempt before damage can occur.

Stops Attacks Before Login Happens

Login Guard intercepts brute-force, bot, and credential-stuffing attempts before WordPress completes authentication, preventing damage instead of reacting after compromise.

Intelligent Enforcement With Full Visibility

Every login decision allowed, blocked, or escalated is enforced by clear security rules and recorded in the Activity Log, giving admins complete insight into what’s happening and why.

Strong Account Protection Without User Friction

By combining MFA, role-based enforcement, trusted devices, and adaptive lockouts, Login Guard secures high-risk accounts while keeping legitimate users productive and uninterrupted.

  • WordPress Login Guard Tabs and Features

Overview (Baseline Login Protection)

The Overview tab provides essential front-line protection against brute-force attacks and automated login abuse by enforcing predictable lockout rules, blocking invalid usernames, and filtering bots with a low-impact honeypot field. By intercepting malicious behavior before WordPress completes authentication and logging every block, lockout, and recovery event, it gives administrators immediate protection, reduced server strain, and clear visibility into login threats without disrupting legitimate users.

Authentication (MFA & Devices)

The Authentication tab protects accounts from takeover by enforcing multi-factor authentication for selected roles and supporting trusted devices to balance security with usability. By adding a second verification layer beyond passwords and recording MFA successes and failures in the Activity Log, it ensures that even stolen credentials cannot be used silently while giving administrators confidence that high-privilege accounts are properly secured.

Lockouts & Rate Limits

The Lockouts & Rate Limits tab gives administrators advanced control over how login abuse is handled by separating policy intent from simple one-size-fits-all rules and providing direct visibility into locked IP activity. With configurable thresholds, progressive lockout options, and a built-in unlock workflow, it helps reduce attack persistence, speed up recovery for legitimate users, and turn repeated abuse into actionable security insight.

Geo Rules & Honeypot

The Geo Rules & Honeypot tab introduces location-aware login intelligence and deceptive defenses designed to identify and contain automated threats before they reach real users. By allowing admins to define where logins should originate and creating decoy endpoints that expose scanning behavior, it helps shrink the site’s attack surface and convert attacker automation into early warning signals.
