    Hi,

    I recently received emails from the WordFence plugin installed on my website that many attempts to attack it have been blocked. Should I be alarmed and what can be done to improve website’s security?

    Kind regards,

  • Hey @yunis777,

    I know how alarming it can be to see attacks like this on your site. But it’s actually normal. From the screenshot, it looks like the IP(s) attacking the site have already been banned by the Wordfence WAF. There’s only so much we can do to prevent an attack, it’s more about making sure they aren’t successful, which it looks like Wordfence os doing.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thanks,

    Hey @yunis777,

    Since we haven’t heard back from you I am assuming that the instructions solved your issue so I am marking this topic as resolved.

    If however, for whatever reason, you are still experiencing this issue and it is not resolved please respond to the post, and mark this topic as “not resolved”.

    Thanks,

    Gerroald
