Ban SSH brute-forcers automatically

netshun watches your logs, spots brute-force attempts, and drops attackers into nftables automatically.

Ban SSH brute-forcers automatically.

Every public server gets hammered by bots trying to log in over SSH. Fail2ban works, but it’s old, heavy, and painful to configure.

netshun watches your logs, spots the brute-force pattern, and drops the attacker straight into nftables. Status shows the daemon uptime and how many bans are active. List shows every banned IP and which jail caught it. Check gives you a single Nagios-compatible health line — monitorable like any other service.

A modern fail2ban written in Rust. Lightweight, fast, and plugs straight into your existing monitoring.
