Quite funny to see this when going through logs:

765540

Thats why I always say, create users in Afrikaans.
We have Zabbix, support, root, admin, even VNC that these 9 year olds keep guessing.


*Or just disable SSH.
 
Wtf is SSH open? Should be accessed via VPN only. All it will take is one remote exploit and you're moertoe
 
Found the one IP in our logs as well haha

Usually over 5000 attempts a day just on port 22, guess the scrypt kiddies are not in full force yet

Remember to make sure uPnp on NAS is disabled. Cool feature im sure, bad idea imo

I also got myself those 3 gang wifi switches. I was too scared to use them on my own network and created a separate network.
Guess the best thing with a NAS would be to give it a static IP and block internet access.
 
You can always limit connections to your Mikrotik via IP > Services. For example if you use IPs within 192.168.x.x on your internal network, you could try the code below. Please note that this is not recommended if you need access to your Mikrotik from outside your internal network.

/ip service
set 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 address=192.168.0.0/16
 
these are all public accessible IP addresses though, not ones assigned by an ISP?

My home firewall logs shows 40 attempts in the last 24 hours on ssh

Mine shows only the port scans and no login attemplts as the port scan shows no ports open. You will only see the login attempts if the port is open

Easy to reconstruct your IP address range from this.......

Nope haha, there are 5 different IP's in that list, so the one you will reconstruct will not be one we have configured on any of the firewalls

Here's my home IP, with HTTPS access on the fortigate.... locked down access to two IP's though.
