Locked out users

    Is it really worth it to block out individual IP users to protect ones website? Or is that too small a solution for a problem that’s too big. I’m asking because there are great variety of threat actor groups out there. Not just cyber criminals who sell sensitive information on the dark web, but also ‘script kiddies’ who hack merely for sport.

    Hi @reyese674, if your site is hosted here on our servers, I wouldn’t worry about it. We take care of security and even monitor your contact and comment forms for spam. All you have to do is protect your own password and login.

    If your site is not hosted here on our servers, we have a similar security offering through Jetpack:

    Does that help? If not, send more details and we’ll go from there.
