I checked the core rules set in the mod-security but it's didn't contain the rules related to Brute-Force Attack!!! Did anyone know how to write the rules or the existing rules for this kind of Attack!

Thanks in advanced,

It's a better idea to have some daemon monitoring the logs and taking action. Fail2Ban works wonders for me. Alternatives exist.
