It’s Official, China Is Undeniably Attacking US Networks 400% Increase In Network Attacks Over Holiday Weekends.

Ok so I am not here to point fingers because both governments pretty much do the same thing duh… I will also add that Chinese attacks on US networks have increased in the past few months since the conflicts in Ukraine. Over this memorial weekend I have been monitoring many server nodes across different data centers and have definitely had in increase in brute force and scan attacks.

Today I have noticed a 400% increase in additional log records related to these attacks. Coincidence I think not, how else do you explain an increase in attacks a day before a major US holiday? Chinese PLA will obviously deny anything but if you analyze the data it definitely looks like a coordinated attack on US networks .Chinese Intelligence Assumes that no IT personal will be working over the weekend so they amp their attacks. Let let me say something to Chinese Intel… YES WE WORK ON HOLIDAYS TOO!… lol

P.S. I have logs to prove that too… xD
