Illustrative screens. The edition selected in the price box decides what is locked.
Does it replace a firewall service?
It adds a firewall at site level. A service in front of your host is still a good idea.
Will it lock me out?
You can add your own address to an allow list, and a recovery link is emailed if you do get locked out.
Does it need WolfStack?
No.
