Safe.jpg)

### Generous Monthly Quotas

Micro Cloud users are granted **1,000 [requests](https://www.limitloginattempts.com/blogs/guides/what-are-requests/)
in the first month**, followed by a consistent allocation of **100 requests per 
month thereafter**. These requests are instrumental in executing the **app’s IP 
database checks during login validations**. Depending on the brute force activity
of each user’s website, the allocation might last the entire month, or only a few
days. If more requests are needed, the user can upgrade to [Limit Login Attempts Reloaded Premium](https://www.limitloginattempts.com/plans/)
starting at as low as USD $7/month.

### No Credit Card Required

Breaking away from traditional subscription norms, Micro Cloud** requires no credit
card information** during sign-up. We believe in providing a seamless and risk-free
experience for users exploring our premium features.

### Automatic Transition

As your site approaches its **monthly request limit**, Micro Cloud effortlessly **
transitions back to the free version**, ensuring uninterrupted security coverage
without any manual intervention.

## How Can This Be Free?

The decision to offer Micro Cloud for free stems from our dual objective:

 1. To enlist users in accessing valuable IP data, thereby enriching our growing cloud
    database.
 2. To empower free users with a firsthand experience of our premium version, accessing
    its impact on [reducing failed login attempts](https://www.limitloginattempts.com/blogs/guides/failed-login-attempts-in-wordpress/).

### 3. Configure Premium Security Settings (Recommended)

#### Deny By Country

![](https://www.limitloginattempts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/image-5.png)

Are your users logging in from different countries? If your answer is no, then we
recommend enabling the** Country Access Rules **so only users from approved countries
are logging in, and the rest are denied. 

##### How to enable this feature

 1. Go to the LLAR plugin dashboard
 2. Go to the **“Login Firewall”** tab
 3. Scroll down to **“Country Access Rules”**
 4. Select countries to Deny or Allow

#### Add Username(s) to Safelist

![](https://www.limitloginattempts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/image-6.png)

Brute force bots will often use known or frequently used usernames when attempting
a login. If you know of all usernames that are allowed to log in, it’s highly recommended
to list them as an _allow rule_ and deny everything else with the asterisk rule.

##### How to enable this feature

 1. Go to the LLAR plugin dashboard
 2. Go to the **“Login Firewall”** tab
 3. Scroll down to **“Login Access Rules”**
 4. Add usernames to the Allow rule.
 5. Use “*” for Deny rule if you want to ensure any other usernames that attempt a 
    login will fail. 

#### Add IPs or IP Ranges To Safelist (Advanced)

**Our **_**IP intelligence**_** built into our app will automatically recognize 
safe and unsafe IP addresses without the use of this feature.** However, for those
using a static IP or a range of IPs, then it’s helpful to add it here for additional
protection. 
**This configuration might cause you to lock yourself out! **[Please read this article for explanation of IP access rules.](https://www.limitloginattempts.com/blogs/guides/access-rules-explained/)

##### How to enable this feature

 1. Go to the LLAR plugin dashboard
 2. Go to the **“Login Firewall”** tab
 3. Scroll down to **“IP Access Rules”**
 4. Add IPs or IP ranges to the Allow rule.
