Rise in attempted logins with admin user name

Recently got a high rate of chine IPs trying to log in with one admins user name. A security plugin is blocking the IPs for 4 hours after 10 attempts.

Thinking I should do something more as in block the IPs altogether or maybe enable 2 factor on admin account/s if it’s available in 2.1 :)

Thoughts? Or just ignore? TY
 
Two-factor IS native in 2.1.

This is one reason I never identify my admin or mod accounts on the boards with titles, banners, formatting of username, leaderboards or any other way.
