No, that is not correct.

According to Phil Schwartz, the suspicious logins are the ones where previous 
failed logins are followed by a successful one, i.e. an attacker finally 
guessed your password.

Whitelisting username/host combinations is a *workaround*, and a terrible one 
at that because it will fail to find compromised logins.

The reason I am confused by this latest behavior is because things were working 
fine for several years without any problems, and all of the sudden I am 
experiencing this problem.
