Block access by Geo location

Question

I'm wondering if it's possible to block access based on location, as many hackers and ransomware attacks in recent years came from Russia or Belarus etc.

I dont want my vps accessed by those countries. I'm aware that there's ways around this, such as VPN, but it will reduce the attacks.

Does this answer your question? Ubuntu 18.04 block countries access to my server (ssh & nginx) — popey, Feb 26 '23 at 12:42

To block access from a specific country or region, you should use the blacklist for IP ranges or use the whitelist for allowed locations, it's not easy to get IP lists.
