Got a new dedicated server, with cPanel and cPHulk Brute Force Protection. Immediately after the server was connected to the web at the hosting provider I started getting these messages at least 10 times a day:

Large Number of Failed Login Attempts from IP *

Does this mean they gave the server an IP address that has been used for a long time before and apparently is on some list of easy hackable servers or proxies or does it mean that these hackers are just randomly trying to hack into servers?

I have another server with another hosting provider and not getting any cPHulk warnings from there.

The problem is that during these attacks I can't login on my server myself and I can't whitelist my ip in cPHulk because I don't have a static ip or even ip range.
