  Instead of click on the option for “Users must be registered and logged in to comment”, could it be possible for us to add some plugin security features to our comments page such as the one from Math Comment Spam Protection Plugin?

  This way, the chances of getting spam can be reduced.

  Can similar plugins be used for our blogs?

  Wouldn’t work. There’s evidence that the math can be read by the bots. That and most American high schoolers can’t do math like that. :)
