DenyHosts to secure from SSH Brut force attacks
Posted by admin on 24th March 2010
DenyHosts is a free opensource utility to secure your SuSE server or your openSUSE system from Brut-force attacks on the SSH server running on your system. DenyHosts works by updating the /etc/hosts.deny file on your SuSE or openSUSE system with the IP address of a host after a set number of failed login attempt from it.
