There is a bot/spider crawling my websites very fast. The useragent is 'ltx71 - (http://ltx71.com/)' and it has serval ips:

52.3.127.144 and 52.3.105.23

On the website it says just this:

LTX71

We continuously scan the internet for security research purposes. Our crawling is not malicious and only notes summary information for a page.

If you have further questions please contact [email protected]

I'm wondering what research purposes. I cannot find anything about it on Google. Should i block this bot?
