Turn off the SSH from Cpanel?

[superhizmet]

Hi.
I am getting botnet attacks in these days and also someone try to get my password , whoever he is trying thousands username and password everydays from different IPs so, I would like to turn off SSH for a while from Cpanel.

If I turn off the SSH from Cpanel.is this going to hurt cpanel process?or Can I still use the cpanel?

if I can turn off the SSH from cpanel ,could you tell me how to?

thanks very much

Specifically the part about Restricting SSH Access.

And you might consider installing CSF.

Between the two you should be able to solve this issue.
