Thanks shaiksaj, but I am more interested in the ip blocking method as RDPguard claims to be able to do, as that would also protect ftp, mssql etc<br />
<br />
I have just found another called E-Guardo but that looks very dubious to me, also one called Syspeace with an outrageous pricing plan, any opinions on any of these ?

Hi all, I'm interested in software to prevent brute force attacks to RDP etc, I have found software called RDPguard but have never seen it mentioned before, anyone know if it's legit or another fake?<br />
<br />
Also are there any other solutions to brute force attacks? I have changed the RDP port but still the event log fills with audit failures.<br />
<br />
Thanks all

Preventing brute force attacks

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.

Security

A vulnerability is a weakness which allows an attacker to reduce a system's information assurance. Vulnerability is the intersection of three elements: a system susceptibility or flaw, attacker access to the flaw, and attacker capability to exploit the flaw. To exploit a vulnerability, an attacker must have at least one applicable tool or technique that can connect to a system weakness, known as the attack surface. Vulnerability management is the cyclical practice of identifying, classifying, remediating, and mitigating vulnerabilities. Other vulnerabilities include security risks, security defects and constructs in programming languages that are difficult to use properly.

Vulnerabilities

Network security consists of the policies adopted to prevent and monitor authorized access, misuse, modification, or denial of a computer network and network-accessible resources. Network security involves the authorization of access to data in a network, and covers a variety of computer networks; conducting transactions and communications among businesses, government agencies and individuals. Networks can be private, such as within a company, and others which might be open to public access.
