SSH Attacks question

In my new host I have a Cpanel, which is completely different than Plesk that I had. Every day my server gets hundreds of failed login attempts. My host says it is normal and I should not pay attention. But the last sentence in this WHM warning says to investigate the even for the integrity of my host? Please help with advise. Is this normal so many login attempts? My server does not definitely host some Yahoo like websites. Thanks very much:

"The remote system 62.24.139.125 was found to have exceeded acceptable login failures on host.domain.com; there was 53 events to the service sshd. As such the attacking host has been banned from further accessing this system. For the integrity of your host you should investigate this event as soon as possible."
