  • Fail2ban is primarily focused on SSH attacks, although it can be further configured to work for any service that uses log files and can be subject to a compromise.
  • To install the Fail2Ban service, connect to your server with root access using an SSH client like Terminal (macOS and Linux) or PuTTY (Windows).
  • 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.
  • cp /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf /etc/fail2ban/jail.local. The next step is to configure a jail (a service you want to monitor and ban at whatever thresholds you’ve set).
  • Though Fail2Ban is able to reduce the rate of incorrect authentication attempts, it cannot eliminate the risk presented by weak authentication.
