## Description

PerfectSecurity uses the PerfectSyntax Security API to check IP addresses of anyone
who attempts to access your WordPress login.
 If the IP address is known to be malicious,
they are blocked from accessing, no need for you to worry!

Other features include:
 * IP Blacklist * Country Whitelist (Only allow specific
countries to access your login page) * High request blocking (too many requests 
= temporary ban) * Disable the XML-RPC interface. * More to come!

  How do I get an API Key?

API Keys are available by creating an account at https://perfectsecurity.network
and visiting the API Key section.

  How accurate is the IP lookup?

While we can never be 100% certain on if an IP is malicious, we track numerous variables
and use custom algorithms to get our results.
 If at any point an IP is blocked 
that shouldn’t an email can be sent to appeals@perfectsyntax.uk with further details.

  Can I view the stats?

Of course! The core goal of the system is to educate and avise, we provide an in-
depth dashboard at https://perfectsecurity.network.
 Using the dashboard will allow
you to see details on country of origin, number of black/whitelisted IP addresses
and more!
