Way of blocking brute attacks?

[Kuwl]

I was wondering if there was a way to block brute attacks on our control panel. We've noticed a TON of attacks on our control panel and someone is trying to brute force their way onto our panel. Just wondering if TCAdmin had a way to stop this. Thanks

I just monitor the logs and add them to my firewall most are FTP attacks rather than control panel logins.

Update to Version 1.0.2737.22278

 

 

- Added brute force detection to the web login and ftp. After 10 invalid logins the ip will be banned for 15 minutes. When an ip is banned a message is saved to Web.Security.txt for web logins and Monitor.Security.txt for ftp logins.

I thought that was the case, but no longer had that message...and I did not want to post incorrect info

After I dug further into my logs I found it and forgot to update this thread :-P.

 

And yes, most of them are ftp accesses, its just a never-ending barrage of attacks though :-|. Our log file is 42 MB big.

 

Time to clear it out :-P. Is anyone else being hit like this?
