There are a few different approaches. If your version of NUT was build with 
TCP-wrappers, you can configure NUT to only allow certain clients to connect.

However, in most cases where you would consider TCP-wrappers, you would 
probably be better served with a kernel-level firewall.

There is also an option to compile NUT to verify client SSL certificates:
