Localhost blocked AGAIN

OK answer to myself : deactivate the BruteProtect plugin by renaming the BruteProtect plugin folder, then I’m able to login without this error message.

Cheers,

Hi Aguett –

This is a known issue we’re seeing in Jetpack Protect as well.
https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/issues/1897

We’re currently working on a fix, but thank you for the report!

Backstory to why I pointed you to Jetpack Protect:
https://bruteprotect.com/bruteprotect-joins-automattic/
https://jetpack.me/support/security-features/#enable

I’m having this issue too and WPEngine has had to deactivate the plugin several times, even with my IP whitelisted. I’m now off and depending on CloudFlare to protect me so please let me know ASAP so I can turn it back on!
