Limit Login Attempts

Add another layer of security to your website by limiting login attempts.
Overview
The Limit Login Attempts feature enables you to exercise control over the number of login attempts a user can make before their IP is blocked. This serves as a security measure to reduce the chances of unauthorized access to your website and protect your web server from potential crashes due to excessive login attempts by bots or malicious users.
