Brute-Force SSH Server Attacks Surge (InformationWeek)Brute-Force SSH Server Attacks Surge (InformationWeek)Posted May 14, 2008 18:42 UTC (Wed) by smoogen (subscriber, #97)In reply to: Brute-Force SSH Server Attacks Surge (InformationWeek) by danielpf Parent article: Brute-Force SSH Server Attacks Surge (InformationWeek)
This works for small servers very well. For larger targets it only delays the attacks. Moving the ssh to port 9223 or some such on machine www.bigsite.com stopped the main robots but after a bit a new set of people showed up with bots after they had done a nmap. I am guessing they saw it and then told their bot-herd to go after the hi-port. However the small home machine I have, has never had a scan go high.
