INTERNET ATTACKS JUMP SIGNIFICANTLY THIS YEAR
I can confirm this based on the statistics from the networks I operate
personally. My cable modem (single IP address) is averaging 400 to 800
scan/attack attempts per day, which is up from around 100 a year ago.
The larger network I operate has gone as high as 16,000 logged
scan/attack attempts in 24 hours, and has settled at around 12,000 per
day. This compares to around 800 to 1,000 this time a year ago. If
this trend continues, it's going to move from being a nuisance to a
major problem very, very quickly.
