I would recommend you read README-SERIOUSLY.bestpractices.txt, top level of source code.

Another thing you can do is turn on security logging if you are using Asterisk 10/11.  Take a look at logger.conf.  It may provide you with some extra information on who is trying to make the call.

Take a look at this page:
https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Important+Security+Considerations

I would recommend using fail2ban as well.
