Site visited by abusive Bot

I was reviewing the Access log and noticed a bot from a URL that I had not seen before. The IP address is: 144.76.29.149 When I googled it I found that it is known as an abusive Bot. See here: https://www.abuseipdb.com/check/144.76.29.149 Is this considered normal or is it a cause for concern??

Yes, it's pretty normal -- if you put a site up on the Internet, then people will discover it, and some of them will be abusive bots. It's important to make sure that your site's code is secure so that they can't cause any harm.
