Is there a way to create a Security Policy for SSH traffic. I have a virtual server listening on port 22. Is there a way i can enable Application Seurity on this?
Thanks

ASM does not validate the SSH protocol. You could try to do something with iRules based on layer 4 info like client IP address, connection attempts per time interval and/or GeoIP location data.
I think it also makes sense to implement more SSH-specific validation on the SSH servers themselves. There are a lot of opensource solutions for securing SSH like:
