Now I know is someone trying to brute force enter to my windows 2008 now how the IP of the user is dynamic or in other words in all way each time I block the IP of the attacker, this attacker create a new IP from any part of the world in an endless situation I suppes that attacker has an script to create new IP and continue the attack. Now I found on Google this script and works excellent:
https://github.com/EvanAnderson/ts_block
I configured that script to block the IP after 2 failed attempts and to remove the IPs after 1 month from firewall and does the Job fine like I said.
Now the issue is that the attacker still hammering the system the ts_block script does the job very well block the IPs but the problem is all day is a game of the attacker creating new IPs now I saw this too:
http://www.2x.com/securerdp/
And that software can block the access avoiding to the attacker enter to a log in screen but the sad history is that not work in windows 2008. Exist a similar software for windows 2008 where I can limit access via computer name or mac address I mean give permission of some computer names and or via macid like SECURERDP for windows 2003?
Any other suggestion too for increase security or software to use?
Thank you
