That suggestion was already given in the discussion thread. Like pointed
out to use iptables for blocking hosts.

But what does it help on systems where people have to login from
changing IPs and not from a fix IP net?

Keep your systems up to date with security update packages. Never use
accounts (like test or guest) with trivial passwords. Always use a
strong password for each account. Let the current wave of scans for
trivial logins pass. There is nothing really good we can do against it.
Seems all the hosts are already owned and try to enter more systems.
