Wordfence effectively detects and blocks malicious IPs, but because it operates at the server level, your site still processes attack traffic before blocking it. This leads to increased server load, slower performance, and higher resource usage. Frequent “Increased Attack Rate” notifications indicate surges in brute-force attempts, which, if unmanaged, can degrade site stability and even cause downtime.
The solution is to offload security to Cloudflare, blocking malicious IPs before they reach your server. Polar Mass Advanced IP Blocker automates this by integrating Wordfence and Cloudflare, providing real-time protection, reducing server load, and keeping your site fast and secure. Download now to protect your website effortlessly.
