Besides changing admin ports from ssh 22 and https 443 try this if you have and available public ip.
Create a new interface on your firewall making it a loopback interface. Use a private ip /32 host. Example 172.16.1.1/32 or 192.168.1.1. Allow https and ssh access on this loop back interface. Now creat a VIP pointing to the loop back ip using a public ip. Example 123.234.245.267 nat to loopback ip you used. Now you can create a firewall policy allowing Outside/Wan to this VIP on https ssh or whatever ports you need. But now you can specify a source. You can even use a GEO ip to only allow inbound access to your firewall from a certain country. Create a deny policy below this to log attempted logins. Test access using new public ip before disabling https and ssh on your current outside wan interface.
