Subject: Bot army trying to sneak under the radar
I have heaps of log entries that look like below.  Each IP address tries
only 1 to 4 times.  It looks like a new bot army is trying to crack
servers without triggering detection.  It's not the usual attack where
one server tries hundreds of times on a small set of addresses.

If you have any intrusion detection systems expecting a single IP
address, they won't work anymore.

Now would be a good time to change "PermitRootLogin" to "no" in your
sshd_config, if you haven't done so...

Cheers!

It would be the time to change the ssh service port to something different
and/or permit incoming connections from known IPs only.
Use MaxAuthTries 2 with combination of ipt_recent to prevent quick
password/port scanning.
And maybe put honeypot on port 22 instead.

Now, that's what I call rigged up!... :)
Thanks for the tips!

Cheers!
