Login-Shield

Your first line of defense against Internet bots, hacks and probes. Login-Shield is a small set of bash scripts that implements an iptables/ipset blocklist of known sources of hack activity. Works great as a compliment with/without fail2ban. Statistics have shown it blocks 90+% of most system probes and attacks on login ports. (by DPsystems)

    However I do not merely rely on this trust. I monitor my systems aggressively. I implement additional security measures to mitigate my exposure and liability. There are systems like fail2ban and login-shield that I use as additional layers (and have audited the code - these systems are a lot simpler than Linux - it's unrealistic for anybody to actually fully-audit the Linux kernel).

    Obviously your focus is on finding vulnerabilities, but how important would you say is stopping unauthorized people from even having a chance to find/exploit vulnerabilities in the first place? There are systems like like Fail2Ban and Login-Shield that use IP-based blacklisting that in my opinion can protect us from the vulnerabilities we aren't even aware of. How important is this in your plan of protection?
