Sounds like WordFence. Email notifications are configurable. Turning off most of them is advisable. I've had trouble with users with nominally static IP addresses changing with sufficient frequency to be too much of an annoyance to stay with IP whitelist. Limiting the failed login attempts and maxing out the lockout period cuts down on a lot of the bot activity.
