WP on closed network server is trying to contact Google

  • Hello, I have WP on a closed company site, but it is reaching out to Google DNS (8.8.8.53).

    How can I track or block this request?

    So I’ve learned it’s from wp-cron.php

    Any ideas what I can change so that this doesn’t happen? I assume it is reaching out somewhere to get the time?

    edit: I simply added 127.0.0.1 redirect to my site’s URL in host file on server, can anyone advise if this should fix the solution and is an acceptable thing to do?
