This plugin is designed exactly for the purpose of tracking and blocking distributed attacks. The plugin works by tracking invalid login attempts by ip's across the entire network of sites using the plugin. Once an IP passes a preset threshold, it is then blocked from attempting logins on all of the sites that are part of the network.

The stats say it all!
