Hello,

I have already asked for information about this in a ticket.
But I always find myself with the same problem.
For example 150 test with url -> http: //www.xxxxxx/en/wp-login.php
the ip is never the same and then there is about 10 minutes between each test.
A priori there is no risk I imagine, but I would automatically blocked these IP even if they come only once.
Is it possible ?

thank you in advance

Hello,

I'm sorry but that's not possible to create different threshold for different security exceptions and setting the limit to just 1 is too restrictive, you're going to ban a lot of regular users.
My suggestion is to simply ignore this, the Internet is full of bots that are scanning all the sites all the time, if they are just visiting a link and then go away, you can ignore them.
