Hosts running BitNinja block ports due to non-captcha

    Not sure if there is any way to pass the captcha challenge on to the end user but web hosting companies using IP reputation and other security “front end” services like BitNinja may block unknown requests/port ranges without a captcha being proven.

    When performing a migration from staging to production (same server), it put a block on my IP address as a result and once I had the hosting company whitelist my IP the request was allowed. They assured me it wasn’t my IP reputation and provided this screenshot from their BitNinja portal.

    Not looking for support, just an fyi. Cheers and thanks for the great plugin!

    Hi @pingram3541

    Thank you very much for this information ??
    Some hosting providers may be very sensitive to the request amounts.

    Even if we mostly use requests comparable to pings we will try to decrease the amount of them, hopefully such cases won’t happen to any other person in future.
