 * Lots of options but easy to configure. Wordfence recently help me detect and 
   stop a brute force attack on my site. They really keep up on WordPress vulnerability
   and update often to protect you, even when plugin authors don’t.
 * A small issue on shared servers: pay attention to your memory usage, especially
   if you run multiple sites. On one host I had to turn live traffic off and set
   the memory limit Wordfence down to 30 megs.
