A malicious IP or bot is trying to gain access to website by trying out brute force attack. MalCare uses Captcha-based Login Protection to handle this by limiting the number of failed login attempts.
Our WordPress security plugin offers to alert you when there are malicious attempts made to log into your website admin panel. You can disable the brute force attack alerts whenever you want, and the plugin will still keep a log for you to manually review.
