Looking over my ftp-server logfiles, I find a lot of brute force attacks, where the same IP-address tries 100s of username/password combinations.
Is there something I can do to make life harder on these brute force attackers? Something like an IP is locked out for x time if it has y failed login-attempts?
Server is Microsoft Windows Server 2008.
