| OVER 3100 seperate instances on Sunday night. | | I've had a number of customers who use Telstra ADSL at home reporting | extreme levels of scanning over the weekend. See extracts of 3 messages | from one customer below - he hade 4 different IP addresses over the weekend. | | These are their home networks not commercial systems so they are all using | Netgear firewall routers. I don't have any commercial ADSL installations & | so don't have detailed logs - only security alerts from these routers | (extract below). The "attacks" are just scans but the numbers are so high. | As you probably know 20 per month is the norm for this sought of activity | | Has anyone else noticed this? If you have a production box managing ADSL | can you have a look at your logs. | | Pigbond Support have been as helpful as ever telling customers to send an | email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Can anyone help confirm how widespread this activity has been your comments | / thoughts most welcome. | | Thanks | John Morrissey
Not sure if it was something else or not, but somehow (office connection) we used 1.2GB on Saturday (extra 500MB on Friday too and Sundays stats haven't cleared)......while noone was in the office. 2 people with keys, and neither of us were here. May just be the great security implemented (*cough*) but thought I'd post anyway incase others experienced increased data which may be related....
