Hello.

From my logs:

54.236.1.13 POST /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php – Blocked access to admin-ajax.php – [bot detection is enabled]

but 54.236.1.13 is “crawl-54-236-1-13.pinterest.com”.

So am i blocking Pinterest and probably other needed crawlers?

Yes, you are.
This policy allows only your server and yourself (while your are logged-in) to connect back to the admin-ajax.php script, and will block bots. If you need the pinterest.com bot to connect to it, disable the policy.

Hi!
Are the attacks blocked even if it is not explicitly stated in the log file?
For example, I found the entries below in my log file. Were these blocked by the firewall?

There were blocked. As indicated below the log, it shows all threats that were blocked by the firewall, unless stated otherwise.
