Hi List, I've been experiencing brute force dictionary attacks from various sources against my gateway. The attacker is trying all kinds of username/password combinations to get in. I have traced the source IP addresses on internet authorities such as Ripe, Arin & Apnic; the feedback I get is that "Country is really world wide". I then traced the IPs using visual route, and saw that their locations vary widely; some of them are in the US, some in China, others in Poland... What are my options in such a case? Have you ever experienced such a behavior? And what are the best practices that apply? Thank you, -Mohamad.
