Subject: Scriptable defense question


Hi All,

here is a scenario that has come up.
Lets says there is a generic server that is on a dmz, and there are many
password attempts on the server.  Is there a tool that would allow for a
tcp reset, or connection drop , or possible bar future sessions from
that IP?
I am thinking of a script that parses a log, looks for repeated attempts
from the same IP, and then calls a tool that drops the connection.

Does anyone have any ideas on this?

Prove to peers and potential employers without a doubt that you can
actually do a proper penetration test. IACRB CPT and CEPT certs require
a full practical examination in order to become certified.
