Wordfence block existing user login

Hello, Premium user here but this seems appropriate for the ‘free’ side. I have a bunch of users who are set up as authors, but never need to log in. Ever. Blocking them all from logging in seems like a basic security measure. (Yes, complex passwords are used, and the users do not have their passwords.)

Testing verifies that in Wordfence Options, you can’t block an existing user under:
“Immediately block the IP of users who try to sign in as these usernames.”

Is there any way in Wordfence to block login for an existing user? If not, anyone know of a way to do this without installing yet another plugin?

Thanks for any help. MTN
