Admin Panel Bot Attack

Hey Dear People
First of all thanks for your time and answers.
I've got a website done by a company.The admin panel they use ( as I assume) is Version 1.0. It also could be a hybrid system.
As I noticed from my cpanel, I see many different ips trying to reach the url " /admin."
Is there any extensions or solutions that I can use to avoid this. Thanks a lot folks.

Well, the most simple way would be, to add one of the Mod's below.
Then, a 'regular' access to the Admin Login Page is no longer possible,
and any attempt to access Admin will be rerouted to the Front Site again.
Still, no admin FOLDER Move is required, and everything will work as before.
You can try this here, and see, what happen, I slightly modified the Code, to
redirect to the front index page and not to an error Page, as done by default.

The Mod's all work more or less the same way, use, what you like best!
Good Luck!

You could also use an htpasswd on that directory, so that only you can access it.

Yes, there is: https://www.opencart.com/index.php?rout ... on_id=4773

While this analogy is true, htpasswd is still vulnerable to CSRF attackers since it does not use a strong algorithm to protect its folders.
