attempted failed hacking/unauthorized access to my xbox/microsoft account for months now

[wise crag]

For months now, people, bots or hackers or whatever have been trying to breach my microsoft account. I have a LOT of games on there so I hope you can understand why im concerned. They've been failing, of course, its behind 2factor and a ridiculously long and complicated password, but... How do I get the log in attempts to stop? I suspect someone got my email and an old password off of a data breach and are trying their luck, but it's been MONTHS of this wierd attempted sign in activity and I'm highly concerned they could theoretically brute force it or whatever because im seeing these attempts from every country under the rainbow. I legitimately don't know what to do here. I probably have thousands of dollars worth of games in that account and I don't want it to be breached.

You don’t stop it.
You just use a strong password and 2fa

I get a couple dozen attempts a day, as do most people

They won’t be able to brute force your 2fa because it is constantly changing

So... This is just normal now for the last few months?
