How to prevent excessive requests to Transfer Family from stfp-client?

0

Hi, I am using Transfer Family, and I want to prevent too many download requests by sftp-users.

I set up cloud-watch alarm and lambda to stop the server in case of too many download requests.

Although lambda can successfully stop the server when too many downloads , the established sftp-connection continues and the user can download files.

Are there any way to stop too many download requests to Transfer Family?

If you want to break current connections for some reason, you can add DENY rule to Network ACL for your server. But in this case you need to keep server in the dedicated subnet. Otherwise NACL will affect other services as well
