summary	This website provides instructions on configuring and enabling brute force protection for Monit using fail2ban. Here's a summary of the process: 1. Check your Monit log file (var/log/monit.log) to ensure failed login attempts are recorded. These might look like: Warning: Client 192.168.60.1 supplied unknown user test accessing monit httpd Warning: Client 192.168.60.1 supplied wrong password for user admin accessing monit httpd 2. Update your repositories and install fail2ban using the commands: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install fail2ban -y 3. Create a Monit fail2ban filter by editing the configuration file: sudo nano /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/monit-auth.conf 4. Define the regular expression that matches both failed login types (wrong passwords and unknown users): Definition failregex: Warning: Client HOST supplied.monit-auth enabled true filter: monit-auth port 2812 logpath /var/log/monit.log bantime: 60 maxretry: 3 5. Restart the fail2ban service to apply changes: sudo service fail2ban restart Now, Monit brute force protection is enabled using fail2ban. You can verify its status with this command: sudo fail2ban-client status monit-auth This will display information such as currently failed attempts, total failures, banned IP addresses, and categories associated with the configuration.
