Suricata to block time on home use!
-
how long should I block an attack? default says 1 hr… is that good enough? what do you guys do?
-
In my opinion, especially for home use, one hour is enough. Any kind of scanner or automated attack is going to give up in a short time and move on to fish someplace else. Only somebody who was after you specifically might try for a longer time, but even then 1 hour should discourage them. Of course it is highly unlikely you get targeted as a home user anyway unless you moonlight as Dr. Evil ;).
