Friends,
I can tell you this happened:
Apr 26 10:20:39 skapet sshd-session[32158]: Failed password for invalid user root/1234567 from 94.227.227.108 port 40762 ssh2

(yes, echoes of the #hailmary cloud https://nxdomain.no/~peter/hailmary_lessons_learned.html )

yes, friends, this happened:

Friends,
It feels like it was in a different century, but at the beginning of the #russia-#ukraine full scale war I speculated that you could predict development in conflict based on the intensity of attempted #cyberattacks, see https://nxdomain.no/~peter/Predicting_developments_in_real_world_conflict_from_patterns_of_failed_logins.html. The data now covers four years.
I ponder whether it's worth using the data (linked in the article) to see how these things correlate.
I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I've heard of one-LETTER user names before, but trying ' as a user name takes a very special kind of ... something.

Thanks to everyone who voted in my "Should I Stop Caring and Let IP Address Reputation Sort Them Out?" https://nxdomain.no/~peter/should_i_stop_caring_and_let_ip_reputation_sort_them_out.html poll.
I have since added the *seriously, folks* note to the exported files and told anybody who wanted out of the big list that I will remove them *on condition that they track down the morons who use that list as anything other than a historical artifact* and *LART* them.

Psychologists may be able to explain what happened here:

Some of my friends here will fully understand the pleasure of, after generating 1k public spamtraps over a certain pattern, seeing the selfsame turn up soon after as things the passwords gropers try desperately for ([email protected]) #passwords #passwordgropers #passwordguessing #cybercrime #cyberscum

As far as we can tell,

If you found the #hailmary tag confusing in the previous, the summary article from some years back will possibly make for reading up on that particular weirdness during the long evenings ahead - "The Hail Mary Cloud and the Lessons Learned" https://nxdomain.no/~peter/hailmary_lessons_learned.html or prettified, tracked https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-hail-mary-cloud-and-lessons-learned.html #passwordgropers #passwords #passwordguessing #ssh #cybercrime

I'm at a loss for words -

For the Monday morning (CET-ish) set:
I have just updated the article "The Hail Mary Cloud And The Lessons Learned" https://nxdomain.no/~peter/hailmary_lessons_learned.html aka field notes from the forever war against #passwordgropers on #ssh and elsewhere, with loads of more references to newer material and data #slowbrutes #hailmarycloud #bruteforcers #cybercrime
All links to my stuff has (at least) a nontracked option .

The #sshgropers are really throwing everything at the wall these days:

[Again for the morning CETish crowd]
I *know* you love #passwordgropers, so given this line in my authlog,Aug 15 21:43:28 skapet sshd-session[18507]: Failed password for invalid user Can't open lax from 2a02:4780:12:2159::1 port 45854 ssh2
what on earth happened here?
For reference, see the Hail Mary cloud summary (2013) https://nxdomain.no/~peter/hailmary_lessons_learned.html or with G's trackers and nicer formatting https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-hail-mary-cloud-and-lessons-learned.html
