Hello,
Yes, it is possible to block counties using CSF.
1. Log into server via SSH
2. Edit CSF configuration file
vi /etc/csf/csf.conf
3. Search for 'CC_DENY ' and enter the country code to block
CC_DENY = ""
Example : CC_DENY = "US" -- this will block united states.
5. Save the file and exit
6. Restart the firewall : csf -r
