    I am getting a lot of lockouts from localhost addresses. This site was created with a staging site and on the host, I believe they have set up automatic redirection. However, I spoke with tech support and they see for example that some of these requests were from CRON and are legitimate. I didn’t have them look up all requests, but plugin updates, Jetpack, Backup, etc. make valid requests. They don’t think that any faked IP addresses are being used. My questions are: can I safely unblock or whitelist these 2 localhosts?
    and when Cerber locks them out, is it preventing the aforementioned Cron and plugins, from working properly?

    127.0.0.1 localhost March 16, 2019, 8:21 am Multiple suspicious activities were detected Remove
    ::1 localhost March 16, 2019, 8:16 am Multiple suspicious activities were detected Remove
