WordPress VPN & Proxy Protection
Why use Fense on your WordPress website?
WordPress websites can receive traffic from visitors, bots, proxies, VPNs, and automated systems from all over the world. Fense gives you a practical way to add IP intelligence and traffic filtering to your WordPress installation so you can make better decisions about unwanted traffic.
Detect proxy traffic
Add proxy detection to your WordPress security workflow and reduce the amount of suspicious traffic reaching important pages and forms.
Reduce unwanted activity
Use IP-based intelligence to help protect login pages, forms, comments, registration flows, and other areas that attract abusive traffic.
Simple WordPress integration
Install the plugin from your WordPress dashboard or upload the ZIP manually. Fense is designed to work with an existing WordPress website rather than requiring you to replace your hosting stack.
Built for real WordPress traffic
What can you use the Fense plugin for?
Fense is useful when your WordPress website needs more control over traffic coming from VPNs, proxies, and potentially abusive IP addresses.
Stop spam and abusive submissions
Add an additional traffic-filtering layer around forms and other public endpoints where repeated unwanted submissions are a problem.
Protect WordPress login and registration
Use Fense as part of a broader WordPress security strategy for websites exposed to suspicious login attempts or automated traffic.
Control VPN and proxy access
If your website needs to restrict or challenge traffic from anonymizing services, Fense provides the IP intelligence needed to make that decision.
Improve traffic quality
Separate ordinary visitors from traffic that deserves additional scrutiny so your website can apply more appropriate access rules.
