Very active Bots II ...
Posted by smurphy on Wednesday, 30 June 2010 @ 22:18:10
Well - what I suspected to happen, happened. In fact, in 24hours, I had 6 Bot-Login requests coming through.
I don't know, if valid/real requests had been made here though. From the submitted E-Mail Addresses, I do think that these are Bots.
Seems I'll have to add a possibility to identify living human brains somehow. Note that the system requests the User to validate his request. he is being sent a link to activate. If he does not do it - even the admin can not un...

it looks like some bots are very active, and have a small AI permitting to perform login requests.
Upon user request - I had reactivated user-account requests on my website.
It didn't take 1 Hour for 2 Account-requests to get through, obviously with wrong E-Mail addresses. I'll observe the overall behavior. If it get's overhelming, I'll disable Account-Creation again.

SSH access to systems disabled ...

SSH Access to stargate systems has been disabled. There are still methods to access the servers behind the firewall, but these will only be communicated to the granted persons.
There are simply too many ssh-brute force attack attempts going on (Average of 7/day) with peaks of 25.
The old defensive techniques (self developed dynamic blacklisting) are still valid, raising the security a little higher.

Domain registration data moved to secrecy
Posted by smurphy on Wednesday, 04 June 2008 @ 12:40:00
as the rejected spam level has increased heavily in the last months - I started to investigate where my E-Mail address was published. The most common place I actually have no control over - was the Whois Data entry at the Domain registration.
However DynDns has a service called secret registration. After registering to that service - people will have to contact DynDns to actually get my details.

well - the SolSys systems where actually not affected. The Ubuntu LTS 6.06.1 running in here are way to old for that bug. However - as every admin should do it - I have checked all keys and not found a single vulnerable key.
So - for all of you wanting to know how I did that - I actually use a smal guideline found on the Heise pages. Sorry - german version only - however any security expert would understand...
