Hey first of all you need to disables root login.
This is done by editing the etc/ssh/sshd_config file 
Uncominting the PermitRootLogin no or changing the yes to no.
After that you could change the port but that would give some difficulties
for the users

Yes, see /etc/security/access.conf (it's well commented).
