Must be to change something in this file I think:

wp-content/plugins/ithemes-security-pro/core/modules/brute-force/class-itsec-brute-force.php

…and in this area:

//Look for the “admin” user name and ban it if it is set to auto-ban
if ( isset( $this->settings[‘auto_ban_admin’] ) && $this->settings[‘auto_ban_admin’] === true && ‘admin’ === $username ) {

$itsec_logger->log_event( ‘brute_force’, 5, array(), ITSEC_Lib::get_ip(), $username );

$itsec_lockout->do_lockout( ‘brute_force_admin_user’, $username );

}
