Over at LinkedIn, somebody posted the results of putting a Linux server with sshd exposted to the internet for 30 days recently.

In that particular area, not much seems to have changed since the early years of this century when the events chronicled here https://nxdomain.no/~peter/hailmary_lessons_learned.html (or if you prefer Big G's trackers, https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-hail-mary-cloud-and-lessons-learned.html) occurred.

Possibly not blogworthy, but: One puzzling side effect of running greytrapping (as chronicled in https://nxdomain.no/~peter/eighteen_years_of_greytrapping.html) is seeing the uptick in password guessing using even the obviously generated gibberish local parts, and the sheer volume of tries (see https://nxdomain.no/~peter/should_i_stop_caring_and_let_ip_reputation_sort_them_out.html and links therein). #greytrapping #passwordguessing #passwordgroping #spamd #ssh #pop3gropers

Hm. Over at the facesite I commented on a post about #bruteforce attacks on a commercial network product with a link to https://nxdomain.no/~peter/badness_enumerated_by_robots.html, and got a followup asking whether I have bruteforce protection "in front of" my ssh servers.

And this only hours after I scared the cat by LOL from seeing that the #pop3gropers are actively trying the local parts of my freshly random spamtraps (see https://nxdomain.no/~peter/eighteen_years_of_greytrapping.html a bit down the page). #passwordgroping #cybercrime
