 * I cannot use the feature of XML-RPC Blocking because it is used by Jetpack and
   Atomattic.
 * So you can add following feature:
    Block all access to your xmlrpc.php, except
   for JetPack and Automattic. Will poll ARIN for Automattic’s subnets.

 * Yeah request. For example you can add the functionality of this plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/stop-xmlrpc-attack/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/stop-xmlrpc-attack/).
   I mean, while blocking XML-RPC, plz let Jetpack and Automattic connect to it.

 * Thank you for clarifying further what you meant. The plugin developers will investigate
   further your request.
