Ability to block by country in cphulk

Needs Feedback

As the number of attempts from what seems to be a never-ending stream of compromised bot-net servers rises, it would be nice to be able to set an auto-blacklist setting for servers attempting to login over a set number of attempts. Much like the 2 week delay setting, but just sending the ip to the blacklist directly.

My server is for one client with many sites, so it's easy to go in and whitelist their IP's or remove an accidental blacklisted IP (when they've forgotten a login and were attempting to many times).

It would also be nice to be able to auto-blacklist by country of origin, where you know you don't have clients or users.

cpHulk already allows blacklisting after a configurable amount of attempts. I'm not sure I understand your feature request as a result. Can you provide some details or a use case?

Please submit another feature request for "block by country" since that is separate functionality from your original request.
