InfoSec Handlers Diary Blog

Thanks to Pat for pointing out a sharp increase in the number of sources scanning for port 3389 [1].

Port 3389 / TCP is used by Microsoft Terminal Services, and has been a continuing target of attacks. If you have any logs you want to share, please submit them via our contact page . In particular if you observed anything different the last couple days.
