£10-15 GBP / hour

Hey guys, I run two VPS Servers that each have CSF Firewall installed. I need a rule created so that if a specific IP is making lots of brute force attempts against one of our websites - a WordPress login page for example, that IP needs to automatically be banned via CSF. Please see attached a screenshot of a couple of brute attempts. This is a quarter of one page, some sites are getting thousands of attempts per hour and Im blocking these IPs manually. I KNOW that you can create rules to do this, I just don't know how to do it. Need two VPS servers done, same job on both. If a specific IP is a threat, whether that be due to a brute force attempt or a specific exploit attempt, the IP should be blacklisted via CSF immediately, along with the reason for that ban. Need work done ASAP.

Hello from Greece, Do you need to block only one ip or a range of them? Csf is a great tool and have many features. Would you like to have a Skype call? Regards, Dimitris

Hi, I work at a UK based web hosting company and have probably done 200+ CSF installs, with 1,000's of hours in total of admin time. As well as setting up the rule to block the login attempts I can setup block list sharing between the two VPS servers if you like? This means that when an IP gets blocked on one server, it will then be blocked on the other server automatically. You'll need to provide me with the following for each VPS: - IP address - root login credentials - SSH port Cheers, Mark
