How To Use The IP Deny Tool To Block Malicious I.P Addresses

Once you find malicious I.P addresses like this one, 2.38.137.232, you can easily use the I.P Deny tool in My Kinsta to block them.

To find the I.P addresses you want blocked, you can use the Jetpack activity log.

Then all you need to do is go to My Kinsta > WordPress Sites > Your Site > IP Deny and add the bad IP addresses.

In this case, the bad I.P address comes from Campania region, Naples Italy.

Another good thing about using Jetpack is the Activity Log keeps a copy of everything that happens with your site regardless of what happens with your server logs or any other hosting issues you might be worried about.

On top of this, Kinsta have their own activity log which records all user activity within Kinsta.
