There are a number of ways of doing this depending on the configuration of your network:
- It is possible to use access control lists or rules on your networking devices to block incoming SSH access from all IP addresses except your own. For example, adding an iptables rule that restricts incoming SSH access to a single IP or subnet. An important consideration here though, is that if your IP address changes or you need to access the host from an address or network not specified in that ruleyou will not be able to connect. Make sure that you update the rule/ACL when IP addresses change and make sure you include all of the IP addresses from which you may require access.
- Secondly, you can use one of a number of
tools like BlockSSHd or sshdfilter to dynamically block-in your firewall IP addresses that are the source of failed SSH logins.
