📄️ Fail2ban

Fail2Ban is a critical intrusion prevention framework designed to safeguard servers from brute-force attacks and other malicious activities. It achieves this by monitoring server logs for suspicious patterns, such as repeated authentication failures or attempts to exploit server vulnerabilities, and then taking action to block the offending IP addresses. Traditionally, Fail2Ban modifies firewall rules to reject new connections from these IP addresses for a set period, offering dynamic protection against ongoing threats.
