CPU spikes, scanning too frequently

I’m seeing a lot of CPU usage spikes which are causing CPU resources to be limited for my site (I’m on a shared hosting package). My site is small and not complicated, it is pages only, no posts or comments. When I look at the logs, WF is scanning too frequently – one today at 1.15pm and another apparently scheduled for 11.30pm. I have ‘use low resource scanning enabled but the file requests generated by the scan look like a bruteforce attack!
What can I do to calm Wordfence down?
