Someone isn’t playing nice.
I’m doing end-of-month maintenance for one of my clients. This includes reviewing the firewall logs to look for problems. I found someone with an IP address based in the USA repeatedly trying to login to my client’s system. It was an automated “dictionary” attack. They kept hammering away at it with a “dictionary list” of common login names. They were consistently “denied due to bad credentials,” but I went a step further and blocked their IP address. Now they can’t even communicate – they can’t enter a username on my client’s system to even try.#CallMeIfYouNeedMe #FIFONetworks +1 206-465-2422
