You probably want to prevent logins period, except via ssh keys. That's
your safest bet.

[WBEL-users] SSH Hack/Login attempts
Hello,
I was wondering if there's a way to block some user
names/accounts
from attempting to be logged into via SSH. Lately, over the last week or
so, I've seen a lot of login attempts via test, admin, and guest accounts.
I have the PermitRootLogin=No in the sshd_conf file but was wondering if I
add the above mentioned accounts, they won't even get a password prompt.
Thanks..
Oh yea, there aren't admin, test, nor guest accounts created on the
machine
but they keep trying to use them to login.
