Partial "solution": rate limit ports to max X (5) new connects per X (60
secs) time.
Et tada, almost not to be seen any more.
Misc Linux-based example:

Also possible with your favorite BSD and other OS's...
Limiting port 25 also helps with those annoying bots around the net.
Other solution: disable IPv4 SSH and enable the IPv6 one, no scanning on
that plane ;)
Greets,
Jeroen
