Well, I think you didn't get the essence of what I meant. Don't take "attack" literally. I'm talking about a Cyber attack instead.
And afaik, your DC has nothing to do with securing your WP installation except providing DDoS protection. You are the one responsible for securing your website. An attack doesn't only consist of bruteforce, there are other forms like SQL Injection and so on.
What I meant is that you just momentarily edit your htaccess file to get access to WP Admin. This will ensure that all other IPs are denied access to the wp-admin directory, and no access = no attack (though not always).
Not sure what you mean by "Anyone who wants to attack the site will not only attack one subdomain but also the entire site server", but I think you're talking about DDoS attack, which I did mention above.
Regards,
