good afternoon, I have 52 sites of which most are working well with no issues.  However about 10 sites are (since the Joomla 3.9.26 upgrade) are getting inundated with security exceptions.  One site had 211 in 24 hours.   Can these be stopped with Admin Tools or is there something else I can also do?

 

The 10 sites that are being inundated dont seem to have anything in common although some of them used to use siteground templates they now mostly use JSN Joomlashine templates.    

 

I have tried adding in IP addresses to the admin tools web application firewall feature in the past but ended up with multiple  pages of IP addresses. 

 

I would very much appreciate any help/advice you can give me - thank you for such an excellent family of products though i love the Akeeba backup, admin tools and kickstart!

Hello,

the short answer is: don't worry, let it go. Attackers will get bored and will move on.

For a more detailed answer, I'd suggest you to take a look at this page: https://www.akeeba.com/documentation/admin-tools/atlotsofexceptions.html
