let me get this straight...
your running an ssh server on your windows server...
so that you can transfer files from your windows server, over ssh, over the wlan...
but your also port forwarding ssh from the internet across your nat router to the windows server...
What about setting up a key and disallowing password based logins?
Yea, about 3 posts backNoone has mention Non-Default Port?
I too had this problem on a linux box. Looked and tried all kinds of IDS/IPS and didn't come to find one that worked really well without uber-customizing it. I was going to have to parse the sshd log file and actively block attempts after a certain number of misses, and I ran out of frustration.
Changed the port to something in the 20,000's. Fixed. Have yet to see a single attempt on it since.
Sometimes KISS is the way to go. I know security by obscurity is not by any means safe, BUT, so far it has worked like a charm. And please make sure you have a very secure password and do all the other smart stuff (no root/administrator and such).
