Hi there,
Have any of you recently noticed a lot of ssh scanning coming from amazons EC "cloud" IP blocks?
Today alone I've seen approx 4m attempts from EC2 IPs on just 20 nodes on our network.
Has anyone any experience with Amazons abuse people?
You are aware of the NANOG thread (68 messages) on spam coming from the Amazon cloud - thread title is "amazonaws.com?" and it started May 23rd ? I would scan it as it deals with responses (or lack thereof) from Amazon. Regards Marshall
Thanks,
Paul
