I put up a vps with nginx and the logs show dodgy requests within minutes, how do you guys deal with these?
Edit: Thanks for the tips everyone!

Fail2Ban is great and all, but Cloudflare provides such an amazing layer of protection with so little effort that it’s probably the best choice for most people.
You press a few buttons and have a CDN, bot attack protection, DDOS protection, captcha for weird connections, email forwarding, static website hosting… It’s suspicious just how much stuff you get for free tbh.
And you only need to give them your unencrypted data…
To be fair, you can configure Cloudflare to use your own certs.
@GlitzyArmrest Including for origins? If not, the point of CloudFlare is gone.
