[peratik]

What means "bruteforcelogin"?
The IP has called many Logins on Wordpress, Webmin, Plesk or other CMS/Controllpanels.
The Script use in the most cases Firefox19, BingBot and GoogleBot as UserAgent (grep for "eval(" or "eval(base64_decode(" in the Webspace) and often the name was "mod_system.php"

There is a bruteforcelogin attack on my cpanel server, how can i find the abuse user and prevent it?

Hello

Brute force is an attack (hacking) method that involves using an automated system to guess the password to your web server or services. You can enable cPHulk (WHM Home >> Security Center >> cPHulk Brute Force Protection) and a third-party firewall management utility such as CSF to help prevent these types of attacks on your system.

Thank you.
