Which cron events are they? What are you using to see them running?

Hello.
I run Ninja Firewall
https://www.wordpress.org/plugins/ninjafirewall/
and i see them (realtime) in statistics. Like all connections etc etc.
They are like this:
[01/Apr/21:09:52:46 +0200] – 173.***.***.** “POST /wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron=1617263566.7699809074401855468750” “https://www. website . com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron=1617263566.7699809074401855468750” “WordPress/5.7; https://www . website . com” “-” “www . website . com”
several every 10-20 or more seconds.
These are access logs, they don’t necessarily mean that a WordPress cron event runs every time it gets accessed.
You should look into what is triggering these requests. It might be a rogue plugin, or it might be an external script or a server-side cron event.
If you don’t have cron events that are scheduled with a recurrence of 20 seconds then it looks like something is incorrectly triggering the cron spawner in WordPress. Unfortunately WP Crontrol can’t help with that, that’s not what it’s designed for.

Got it. I was thinking i could find what is triggering those CRONs.
It is not an external script or Cpanel cron.
Maybe some plugin.
Thank you very much for the answers.
