 Scans log files and check for in appropriate password activities and update and uses firewall (IPTables) to restrict (stop for a period of time) these activities. So fail2ban limits incorrect authorisation attempts, thereby reducing, but not entirely eliminating associated risks and bandwidths. It is primarily used on port and associated services open to the public.

 +  *''sudo apt install fail2ban'' to install fail2ban
 +  *''sudo cp /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf /etc/fail2ban/jail.local'' copy the main configuration file to a local file to be modified.  It is recommended not to change the main file as it is updated with the package.
 +  *''sudo vim /etc/fail2ban/jail.local'' and adjust the following basic settings:
 +    *''ignoreip = 127.0.0.1/8 ::1 192.168.1.0/24''
 +    *''bantime  = 60m''
 +    *''findtime  = 60m''
 +    *''maxretry = 4''
 +  *then adjust each jail to be activated:
 +    *<code postfix>
 +[postfix]
 +# To use another modes set filter parameter "mode" in jail.local:
 +enable  = true
 +mode    = more
 +bantime = 12h
 +port    = smtp,465,submission
 +logpath = %(postfix_log)s
 +backend = %(postfix_backend)s </code>
 +    *<code>
 +[postfix-sasl]
 +enabled  = true
 +bantime  = 12h
 +filter   = postfix[mode=auth]
 +port     = smtp,465,submission,imap,imaps,pop3,pop3s
 +# You might consider monitoring /var/log/mail.warn instead if you are
 +# running postfix since it would provide the same log lines at the
 +# "warn" level but overall at the smaller filesize.
 +logpath  = %(postfix_log)s
 +backend  = %(postfix_backend)s</code>
 +  *''sudo systemctl restart fail2ban''
 +  *''sudo systemctl restart fail2ban'' or ''journalctl -u fail2ban -xe'' to check fail2ban start correctly
 +  *''sudo iptables -S'' to check iptable
