Server Security

19 June, 2008 (16:20) | Blogging, Computer

This came out of my FireStats program today. It’s the sort of thing that makes me nervous. I’ve seen a lot of attempts to hack in via SSH on my server from Vietnam. It could be they’re getting tired of brute force dictionary attacks and are now trying to discover what security I use. Sigh, time to look at increasing security again I suppose.
