    That’s the case: I have changed my custom login and it’s not something people can predict easily. Yesterday was the last time I changed the custom login and last night I still got brute-force attack. What’s actually going on? How can they access my login page? I have tried to access mysite.com/admin or /login, but it can’t be accessed. So? Is there any solution?

    First of all. Did you check those checkbox on the Cerber Settings / Main Settings tab?

    Immediately block IP after any request to wp-login.php
    Block direct access to wp-login.php and return HTTP 404 Not Found Error

    Second, what do you see in the Reason column on the Lockouts tab?

    P.S. If you want to send screenshot, you can do that here: http://wpcerber.com/support/
