Fang is a security plugin designed for website administrators who need to stop automated spam and malicious bot traffic. It focuses on preventing unwanted submissions in forms and comment sections without relying on resource-heavy challenges that can frustrate real users.
Visitor Fingerprinting identifies bots by analyzing browser and connection characteristics, allowing it to block threats before they can submit any data to your server. Form & Comment Protection automatically applies its filtering to common form handlers and comment systems, reducing spam submissions without requiring manual configuration for each form. Lightweight Enforcement works by denying requests at the earliest possible stage, which means it uses minimal server resources and does not slow down page loading times for legitimate visitors. Custom Block Lists provide the ability to manually block specific IP addresses or user agents that have been identified as sources of repeated malicious activity. Activity Logging records blocked requests, giving administrators visibility into the types and volume of threats being stopped, which aids in monitoring and refining security settings.
