Another option to consider would be adding a "Security" plugin to Jetpack 

This could be used to manage a centralized blacklist, as well as to patch security vulnerabilities as they pop up.  If all failed login attempts get reported back to Jetpack central, it could blacklist an IP for X minutes/hours after Y number of failed logins on any Jetpack-enabled site within Z minutes/hours.
