ApexShield is a security plugin designed for website administrators who need to defend against automated attacks and unauthorized access. It focuses on preventing brute force login attempts and stopping malicious traffic before it can cause harm.

• Brute Force Protection: Continuously monitors login pages for repeated failed attempts from a single IP address and automatically blocks the source after a configurable number of failures.
• IP Blocking & Allowlisting: Provides manual and automated tools to block specific IP addresses or ranges known for malicious activity, while also allowing administrators to create safe lists for trusted visitors.
• Real-time Traffic Monitoring: Logs and displays all login attempts and blocked actions, giving administrators a clear view of ongoing security events directly from their dashboard.
• Customizable Security Rules: Allows users to adjust sensitivity settings, such as the number of login attempts allowed before a lockout and the duration of the block, to match their specific security requirements.
