SSH Brute Force Protection With Fail2Ban

Hey guys! in this video I will be showing you how to setup SSH brute-force protection with Fail2Ban on Linux. Fail2ban scans log files (e.g. /var/log/apache/error_log) and bans IPs that show the malicious signs -- too many password failures, seeking for exploits, etc. Generally, Fail2Ban is then used to update firewall rules to reject the IP addresses for a specified amount of time, although any arbitrary other action (e.g. sending an email) could also be configured

I've been legit looking at this for a while, and so I'm stocked that HS is making a vid on it! Keep up the great work

[zachsPlayground]

Hi, I have been pulling my hair for 2 days and have followed so many tutorials on the net. But they did not work. After watching your video once, I tried it ...works like charm. You made it so clear and easy to understand the logic behind it. Thank you so much. BTW I am only an enthusiast with no computing background and you are able to make it clear as day light. Thank you again !!!! Subscribed.

Really good vid teaching the basics of it.. I never know about it until now

Hackersploit good day i got a question but its not about this current saw your video on port forwarding and i wanted to ask when you use proxychains and you setup port forwarding do you use your routers public address or the new public address assigned to you as the LHOST? When creating a payload?

If I have disabled passworfd logins and I am using ssh key do I still need fail2ban and if yes how do I test it ?

[andreymatveyev]

Why can't I like this video everytime he drops a gem?

Thank you for the info my friend get as much experience with programming and computer science as you can the world is ending

[matthewkingery]

Could you review how to remove a blocked ip address if a mistake occurs?

[jacksoncremean]

Will you be taking a look at CrowdSec?

[tomaski.]

ok, noob question: if I have sshd running on non-standard port, hardened (100% score on sshaudit) and accessible only with ed25519, does it even make sense to have f2b in that case?

[droidhackerr]

Hey Mr HackerSploit, thanks a lot for this free class, I sincerely appreciate.

Much love from share

[blakryptonite]

Black Friday is coming up. What is some hacking gear we can buy? Can you post amazon affiliate links, so we can buy some gear and support you at the same time?

[davoodgoojposht]

[marianosilvana]

[lars-magnusskog]

@HackerSploit I've noticed you keep saying "relative path" when you actually mean "absolute path", just fyi ;)

Want to #ask sir. When someone bruteforce my server, could it makes my server bandwith run out? What makes my bandwith run out so fast? Thanks before.

[الجوهرةالصغيرة]

Thanks, but I have error : failed to start jail 'sshd' action firewallcmd-ipset': error starting action
I used a lot of banactions all of them have the same result :'(


how can I fix it ?
