Implications of banning countries ip
We have had several attempts on our server from a couple of countries in particularly. I have banned the specific IPs. But I prefer the idea of prevention
As we don't do business outside our own country, I am wondering if it is easier to ban all countries except our own for now.
I would appreciate any advice from any security experts on this. Especially interested if there are implications, that I have not yet considered, if I do this

You're welcome. Yes, they're trying to break in just about everywhere. You become a serious target if you have money or secrets, then they try harder. Thanks for the points.

I realise if someone is determined then it won't necessarily help. I don't believe we have been specifically targetted, we are just more in the general path. It's more someone just trying to get in where they can. They haven't as yet, but I like to put up prevention where I can.
Thanks again for your input.
