Hello,
It's been a while since I last posted a reminder about protecting
against SSH dictionary attacks.
Hi all,
I was thinking about this and the PHP exploit that was mentioned yesterday.
I haven't looked into this, so please bear with me... I wondered if it
was possible to pool resources (a honeypot?) and/or knowledge in terms
of intrusion attempts, etc. Are the attacks that I receive (a lot of
dictionary/brute force attempts and proxy scans) part of someone/thing
simply scanning a range of Bitfolk IPs?
Would it not make sense to share this information or is this too much effort?
Cheers, Gerald
