If these log in attempts are not from machines that should be SSH'ing to this host then you could do several things:
1. Change from the default port of 22 to something different (port line in
sshd_config on the server and port line in
ssh_config on client machine).
2. Configure a firewall on the webserver to only allow SSH from your client(s), remembering to specify the alternate port number if you have also adopted suggestion1. If you do setup a firewall then it will need to allow HTTP in as well of course!

NAME
sftp-server - SFTP server subsystem
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server
DESCRIPTION
sftp-server implements the server side of the SSH File Transfer Protocol as defined in the IETF draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer.
sftp-server is a subsystem for sshd(1M) and must not be run directly. There are no options or config settings.
To enable the sftp-server subsystem for sshd add the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server
See sshd_config(4) for a description of the format and contents of that file.
There is no relationship between the protocol used by sftp-server and the FTP protocol (RFC 959) provided by in.ftpd.

The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
>0 An error occurred.
