Can psad automatically block IP addresses that have scanned my system?
psad has the capability of automatically blocking IP addresses with both iptables and/or tcpwrappers. Furthermore, psad can be configured to only block an IP after it has reached a certain danger level which the admin defines. The two relevant configuration variables in the /etc/psad/psad.conf file are “ENABLE_AUTO_IDS” and “AUTO_IDS_DANGER_LEVEL”. Note that the auto blocking feature is disabled by default; please see the next question.
