Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records BotZoom version 1.0.0 as active, updated 1mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.

Overview

About this plugin

env files, exposed Git folders, old admin tools and weak passwords. BotZoom recognises these bots and blocks them before they find anything.

What the free version does

  • Blocks IPs that request files only attackers look for, such as.env,.git, wp-config.php backups and database dumps.
  • Blocks known scan and attack tools such as sqlmap, Nikto and WPScan.
  • Stops brute-force attacks on the login page and XML-RPC.
  • Stops bots that hammer your site with requests for pages that do not exist (404 flood).
  • Keeps a local log and lets you block or unblock IP addresses yourself.
  • Never blocks logged-in users or verified search engines (Google, Bing, Apple, Yandex, DuckDuckGo), so your SEO is safe.
  • Everything runs on your own site. Nothing is sent to an external service.

BotZoom Pro
