Description
Stop malicious bots and scanners instantly using a smart honeypot trap.
Protect your website from unauthorized crawlers and malicious bots that ignore your site’s robots.txt directives. Fstyle Honeypot Bot Blocker provides a lightweight yet powerful security layer by automatically detecting and blocking intruders.
Once installed, it sets a hidden trap path in your robots.txt. If a bot attempts to access this forbidden area, its IP address is immediately captured and blocked from accessing your entire site.
Features
- Instant Honeypot Block: Automatically adds a trap path to your robots.txt.
- IP Management Dashboard: View detailed logs of blocked IP addresses and manage them easily.
- Smart Whitelist: Add trusted service IPs to prevent accidental lockouts.
