Chris Siebenmann :: CSpace » blog » sysadmin » SSHBruteForceAttacksNoMoreHere Large scale Internet SSH brute force attacks seem to have stopped here August 27, 2022 The last time I paid attention to what happened when you exposed an SSH port on the Internet was years and years ago, when I gave up being annoyed by log messages and either stopped paying attention or firewalled of my SSH ports from the general Internet. Back then, it was received wisdom (and my general experience) that having an SSH port open drew a constant stream of SSH brute force attacks against a revolving cast of whatever logins the attackers could come up with. Recently I set up a Grafana Loki setup that captures our systemd logs. As part of getting some use out of it (beyond questions about how server clocks drift), I built a Grafana dashboard that reports on SSH authentication failures across our Ubuntu fleet (among other things). What I saw surprised me, because what our exposed SSH servers experience today seem...

 A new digital age and the evolution from data sheep to data brokers.   If you've followed the early entertainment in this subject, you'd understand humanity is now inevitability bound for better or worse to the even advance of Technology.  Our cybernetic devices, if you own phones, tablets, and computers your a cyborg simply an high latency one.   But today all our devices have turned us into walking data farms, more importantly; money farms. Is it not time we give up this passive mindset and move forward as true AGENTS (that is exerting our agency into the world).  We can accomplish this with a small change, simply do you research on the devices you use,  learn to professional work with those devices so you can use them proactively or provocatively.  No longer giving them our lives in data form but forcing them to pay to take it or pay us for it.
