I tried reading the relevant site pages, but I only got generic info What protection does the crowdsec plugin provide? Are there any WAF features? Any sql injection protection? Or is it just login / brute force protection? Hi @dimkasta , Thanks for your message. In short: the WordPress plugin is “just” a bouncer (aka remediation component): it doesn’t detect anything, it applies CrowdSec’s decisions. In other words, once you’ve installed the CrowdSec security engine on your server, certain decisions will be retrieved: community blocklist and local decisions, depending on the scenarios you install. The bouncer will “apply” these decisions: block access for “ban” remediation and display a captcha for “captcha” remediation. For the last up-to-date documentation of the bouncer: https://github.com/crowdsecurity/cs-wordpress-bouncer/blob/main/docs/USER_GUIDE.md And for a more generic CrowdSec ecosystem documentation: https://docs.crowdsec.net/docs/intro Hope it will help, Thanks Thank you for the quick response and the clarifications. Hi, I’m closing this issue. Happy to continue the conversation here or elsewhere.
