Login Obfuscator

Descripció

Login Obfuscator makes your login responses more unpredictable to brute-force bots. It adds a subtle security layer by sending an HTTP 403 Forbidden status on failed login attempts, confusing automated attacks that expect standard 200 or 302 responses.

This plugin is simple and silent:
* No configuration required
* No user interface
* Works automatically on activation

Why it works:
* Bots rely on predictable responses (200 = fail, 302 = success)
* A 403 status confuses many automated scripts
* Some bots slow down or stop attacking altogether
