説明
ArmorLite is a free, lightweight WordPress security plugin built for performance. Firewall with 600+ built-in patterns, brute force protection, bot detection, security headers, and login monitoring. No bloat, no unnecessary database queries, no external API calls during normal operation.
Free Features
- Firewall — Pure PHP string-matching firewall with 600+ built-in patterns covering SQL injection, XSS, path traversal, shell access, and more. Five categories (Request URI, Query String, User Agent, Referrer, IP Address). Three matching modes: contains, ends-with, and path-only. Pattern manager with per-pattern toggle and hit counts.
- Brute Force Protection — Session-based login tracking with automatic IP lockouts after configurable failed attempts. Login activity log with IP, location, status badges, and usernames tried. 7-day log retention.
- Bot Protection — Automated bot detection for login, registration, and password reset forms using honeypot fields, timestamp validation, and JavaScript token verification. Blocks bots before they can attempt brute force attacks.
- Security Headers — Four managed headers (X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, X-XSS-Protection) with dual delivery via PHP and .htaccess. Header probe system avoids duplicates.
- IP Whitelist — Whitelist trusted IPs to bypass all security checks including brute force lockouts and firewall blocking.
- Obfuscation — Author slug randomization to prevent user enumeration and email obfuscation to protect addresses from scrapers.
- Dashboard — Real-time stats, blocks over time chart, protection status cards, and WordPress dashboard widget.
- XML-RPC & REST API Protection — Disable XML-RPC and protect the REST API from user enumeration.
- Firewall Log — View blocked requests with IP, matched rule, request URI, and timestamps. 7-day log retention.
- Tools — Health checks with database integrity verification, one-click table repair, and debug mode.

FAQ
-
Does ArmorLite work with NGINX?
-
Yes! ArmorLite works on any web server including Apache, NGINX, LiteSpeed, and others. The firewall uses pure PHP and requires no server configuration.
-
Will this security plugin slow down my website?
-
No. ArmorLite is designed for performance. The firewall uses fast string matching (stripos) to scan requests early in the WordPress load process. Blocked requests are stopped before WordPress fully loads, actually reducing server load from attacks.
-
How does the brute force protection work?
-
ArmorLite monitors login attempts and tracks failed logins by IP address using session-based tracking. After a configurable number of failures (2, 3, 5, or 10 attempts), the IP is temporarily locked out for a configurable duration (5 minutes to 2 hours).
-
What does the bot protection do?
-
Bot protection adds invisible honeypot fields, timestamp validation, and JavaScript token verification to login, registration, and password reset forms. Automated bots that submit forms without rendering JavaScript or that submit too quickly are blocked before they can attempt brute force attacks.
-
Can I use this with other security plugins?
-
Yes, but there may be overlapping features. We recommend testing thoroughly. ArmorLite is designed to be lightweight and focused, so it generally pairs well with other plugins without conflicts.
-
How do I whitelist my IP address?
-
Go to ArmorLite > Access Control and add your IP to the whitelist. Whitelisted IPs bypass all security checks including brute force lockouts and firewall blocking.
-
What is the difference between ArmorLite and ArmorPro?
-
ArmorLite includes all the essential security features for free: firewall, brute force protection, bot detection, basic security headers, IP whitelist, and login monitoring. ArmorPro adds advanced features like the WAF engine, two-factor authentication, passkey login, custom login URL, country blocking, IP blacklist, advanced security headers, email notifications, and extended log retention.

-
What data does ArmorLite collect?
-
ArmorLite stores security logs locally in your WordPress database (IP addresses, timestamps, usernames from login attempts). No visitor data is sent to external services. Anonymous usage data sharing is optional and disabled by default.
-
What happens when an IP is blocked?
-
Blocked visitors see a professional “Access Blocked” page with a 403 status code. The page is clean and branded, informing them to contact the site administrator if they believe it’s an error.
-
Is ArmorLite compatible with caching plugins?
-
Yes. ArmorLite works with all major caching plugins including WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, and WP Super Cache. The firewall runs before caching layers and includes proper cache-control headers.
