What i have found to be a good solution is setting up firewall settings to block a number of attempts/scans. For instance i use bitninja on my whm server and if someone does a quick scan they almost get blocked instantly. If they slow the scan down they last a little longer since my rules dont kick in. I wouldnt say you can eliminate them but you can get it setup to block if the scan is really intrusive and done rather quickly with a lot of attempts. your best bet is to limit the number of requests via a single ip within a specific time limit if that makes sense to you.
