 * Was wondering if All in One Security has way to protect the new REST API in V
   4.7?
 * Far from an expert on the subject but want to see about blocking access to usernames.
   Figure that with all the great options in plugin protection is already there 
   but cannot find method.
 * Many thanks in advance!

 * Hi,
 * No, AIOWPSF does not offer this feature yet. I might check how Wordfence does
   it and reimplement it, I would like to see this feature in AIOWPSF as well.

 * Good deal. Certainly waiting for AIOWPSF:)
 * No more than 20 minutes after asking the question I got email from Wordfence 
   about it. I had been told about it over the weekend at get-together and from 
   what I understood, the API is opening many doors that should remain closed…
 * Thanks!
