Country block function

If you upgrade to All in one WP Security Premium, you can use the smart 404 feature. With the smart 404 configuration setting, you can set up a function to automatically block access when a large number of 404 errors are detected in a certain period of time due to a simultaneous attack by robots.

Smart 404 Settings

Turn on the Smart 404 setting, set the number of times 404 access is attempted and the time period, and then set it to automatically block.

Instant 404 blocking by string match

You can set it to block if a specific string is used.
If there is no specific string, you do not need to set it.

Smart 404 Whitelist

If you are using the malware scanning feature, the malware scanning robot may cause many 404 events, resulting in a permanent block.

It's a good idea to whitelist your current IP address.
