## Key Security Features At A Glance
### *silent*CAPTCHA Bad Bot Protection
Bad bots are you're #1 security threat. They account for nearly all WordPress security probes, attacks, injections, malware and vulnerability exploitation.
Google reCAPTCHA and CloudFlare Turnstile are considered the best way to detect bots, but these along with all other CAPTCHAs interrupt the user experience.
Shield's exclusive *silent*CAPTCHA detects bad bots and blocks them from taking any abusive actions on your site, such as brute-force user login attacks and WP Comments SPAM.
Furthermore, privacy directives from legislation such as Europe's GDPR restrict what data you may share of your visitors. All *silent*CAPTCHA data is kept on your WordPress site and ensures full compliance with GDPR regulations.
### Comprehensive Activity Log
Shield's has best-in-class logging that documents every WP action on your site.
Unlike existing logging solutions, Shield detects changes to your WordPress sites that happen directly on your database. e.g. by hackers that have infiltrated your defenses via an exposed vulnerability.
No other WordPress security plugin does this.
### Limit Login Attempts and Block User Registration SPAM
*silent*CAPTCHA technology is invisible to your visitors and protects your WordPress login, registration and lost password forms from brute force attacks, and eliminates user registration SPAM from bots.
### User Session Theft Protection
Shield can lock user session to browsers, or IP addresses. Combine with 2FA (below), you can protect your users from session theft and account theft.
### Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for all users
Two-Factor Authentication is a crucial part of WordPress user security. It protects against account theft, takeover, and sharing. Shield supports email-based login code, Google/Microsoft/Lastpass Authenticator, Yubikey One-Time Passwords and Passkeys (pro).
