Hello

For all websites I received

We would like to notify you that a security exception was detected on your site, AZ CLEAN, with the following details:

IP Address: my-IP (IP Lookup: https://ip-lookup.net/index.php?ip=my-ip)

Reason: ipwl

If this kind of security exception repeats itself, please log in to your site's back-end and add this IP address to your Admin Tools's Web Application Firewall feature in order to completely block the misbehaving user.

Best regards,

 

What is the reason ?

Thank you very much for your help

Regards

Sylvain,

Hello,

this means that Admin Tools is set to allow backend access to only a limited amount of IP, one IP that is not in that list tried to access the backend and it got blocked.
