fail2ban is available in EPEL for EL7:
yum --enablerepo=extras install epel-release
yum
Hello again,
The last I checked, we had 170,000+ failed login attempts; 1 every 10
seconds on our CentOS 7 web server on Digital Ocean. I tried installing
fail2ban, but the install failed;
google search yielded:
"By default, fail2ban works with iptables. However,

I'm humbled by all the expertise on this email thread. I have a CentOS 7
website server needing fail2ban, but it's failing on install, so I'll post
another question in a separate thread.

What Csaba is saying is that, in some cases, the hashed password has been
exposed and copied to a local computer, and the encryption method is known.
This eliminates any delay that may be imposed on trying to crack it, as you
aren't contacting the website until you know what the password is (was).
