Shield Security is a smart WordPress security plugin that runs autonomously. It scores visitors based on behavior, automatically blocks malicious IPs, repairs damaged files, and surfaces only high-impact issues. Features include brute-force login protection, file scanning, bot detection via silentCAPTCHA, and integration with other security tools. The interface focuses on actionable insights rather than alert overload.
