You can't do that on your VPS yourself, but you can restrict access to that just by having a reasonably strong password or rejecting connections based on IP (you allow SSH or FTP connections only from your IP). That last thing can be done via a firewall, but be VERY careful setting it or you may lose all access to your server.

Hi orange, 

 

This is not possible; I would recommend that you change your SSH port, and install a software firewall to prevent bruteforce attacks on your SSH. A very popular Linux-based software used for bruteforce protection is 'fail2ban'.
