  • One-shot ssh attacks

    From bob prohaska@21:1/5 to All on Fri Dec 18 16:04:07 2020
    Lately I've been noticing what appear to be single ssh attacks
    from an IP. This doesn't seen like a very efficient breakin
    technique, does it have some other purpose?

    Thanks for reading,

    I would wonder if this is part of a massively distributed attack,
    possibly a bot network. Coordinating what happens from all the
    different IPs.
