To block bruteforce try Fail2ban, It will help you to get the list of bad ip. After if you don't want to have less performance impact, You have to use a reverse proxy like cloudflare and send via the api All ip to block or by using a hardware firewall.
Alternative to cloudflare : using a small vps as front to secure your backend server.
