Make sure your game server dedicated/VPS is not having any other port besides the FTP 21 and SA-MP 7777 open. Because as you know SA-MP already has implanted limit connections from an IP address and you can do the same with FTP config settings. Once this is done try to get KVM over your dedicated/VPS and disable SSH so that that port isn't left open for people to attack.
Long as you do not leave ports open for people to attack they will have nothing to attack. They can ping your server but you can easily talk to your hosting company about how to help prevent that from doing any serious issues. And they should be able to provide ways, but it's also very unlikely that can do anything. If anything their network will pick it up more than you would alone and with 24/7 support they will catch it no problem.
