I'm not sure if this is making things too complicated, but one of the problems with SSH is that bots start to hammer it from the moment it is turned on. I use rate limiting and have seen others mention it on the Ubuntu Forums. Maybe it can be part of the settings for SFTP/SSH.
e.g. ip6tables -I INPUT -p TCP --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -m limit --limit 4/minute --limit-burst 5 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT -p TCP --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -m limit --limit 4/minute --limit-burst 5 -j ACCEPT -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Gufw Developers, which is subscribed to Gufw. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/911383 Title: UFW missing pre-configured HTTPS option Status in Gufw: In Progress Status in “gui-ufw” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: GUFW has an option in the pre-configured firewall rules.
