A common type of attack to try to gain access to one of these services is called a brute force attack, which is essentially automating login attempts with a wide range of possibilities with the hopes of guessing the right combination to gain access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cPHulk Brute Force Protection that cPanel provides works at the PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module) level to detect failed login attempts. Once a set number of failed login attempts has been reached, cPHulk will block any further login attempts from the IP address that had been attempting them, for a set number of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because cPHulk blocks IPs at the PAM level, it\u2019s safe to blacklist entire blocks of IP addresses such as a certain country, without having to worry about users from those IPs not being able to access your websites or email you. They will simply be denied access to attempt a login to one of the cPanel core services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve accidentally got yourself locked out due to this protection, you can follow my guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/whm\/fix-cphulk-brute-force-protection-lock-out\/\">how to fix cPHulk Brute Force Protection lock out<\/a>\u00a0to gain access again without having to wait for the block timeout to expire.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"jumbotron\" style=\"text-align:center;\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Scalable VPS Infrastructure, Fully Managed<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>When shared hosting can't handle your traffic, VPS delivers dedicated resources that scale with demand.
