As the title says which is the best way to stop too many connections to the file wp-cron? I am using Wordpress and I would like to know if there is any plugin I can install to prevent attacks such this. Or any other way to with changing permission. I get 503 error and looking for a way to stop this attacks.

Thank you in advance!
 
you question is not clear, you can set up a manual cron job to run via your hosting instead of completely relying on wp that will boost things for you

Is a ddos attack on your wp-cron? Had same problem. Just use cloudflare and their firewall rules. During the attack, block all countries except your top traffic countries and known bots.

I am not sure if it is ddos attack but I got 503 error and cannot access my dashboard. The hosting said that there were too many connectiions to the wp-cron file and they changed the file permissions so the website loaded. But I am not sure how to prevent this attacks with plugin if possible.
