What are the extra features for ShieldPRO?

Please find below list of the all ShieldPRO features you can use to increase your site security.
Pro Feature
|
Description
|
Exclusive Customer Support | We deliver the best possible support experience that our customers demand. You can see here what other ShieldPRO users say about us. |
Easy PRO Activation |
No separate Pro plugin using our unique Keyless Activation technology. You no longer need to manage license keys, just activate your Pro license by providing your site URL in your control panel and hit the "Check License" button. Pro features will be automatically licensed on the site within 30 seconds. |
ShieldNET |
ShieldNET is the all-encompassing term that covers the technology and features that we use to gather security and threat information from across our entire WordPress ecosystem. By collecting information from all active Shield Security plugins, we can offer this information back as threat intelligence to all sites running Shield. The responsibility of identifying threats is then shifted away from individual sites to the collective. A single site only knows what it knows. But when 10,000 sites get together and share information, they each know what 10,000 sites know. This is massive. It completely transforms what’s possible when mitigating threats to our WordPress sites. For more information about ShieldNET, read the release blog post or watch the video here. |
CrowdSec Integration | With the CrowdSec integration enabled, Shield will track malicious visitors and then shares this information with CrowdSec, which ultimately then shares the data with other WordPress sites. More Info |
Custom Activity Logs and Events | There is the option to log custom events to Shield's Activity Log. It's impossible that Shield can log every possibly event for every plugin and scenario, so you can now add logging for all your desired site events. This is an advanced option and will require professional software development experience to implement. |
Shield Security extension for MainWP |
Easily integrate Shield Security to help you manage your site security from within MainWP. You don't need to install a separate extension for MainWP. You can turn-on Shield's built-in extension for MainWP server and client installations through Shield's Integrations module. |
Allow WP-CLI |
With WP-CLI you can perform many common actions of the ShieldPRO plugin just as you would with the point-and-click UI. |

Update Delay |
Protect your WordPress site against auto-update disasters. This feature forces any automatic upgrade to be delayed for a set number of days. This allows time for killer bugs to be discovered and patched before your site automatically updates. So, Shield will delay upgrades until the new update has been available for the set number of days. This helps ensure updates are more stable before they're automatically applied to your site. |
Detect & Capture Login Bots |
Identify and capture Bot when it tries to login with a non-existent username. This includes the default 'admin' if you've removed that account. This may indicate a bot’s attempt to login. Since it used a non-existent username, chances are higher that it’s a bot. You can also decide how you want Shield to respond:
