Sentinel View report – October 2023

An interesting dynamic is happening at the top of the attackers’ chart. First of all, Iranian attacks were overshadowed by other countries to the degree that we no longer see them in higher positions. To mention the current top four most significant, we would highlight Romania, Germany, Bulgaria, and the Netherlands. There had been consistent attacks from Germany that came into prominence about the 4th of October and then slowly started to disappear on the 16th until the final dissolution on the 18th of October. The graph line for German attacks looks very stable and consistent. On the other hand, Romania’s malicious activity, which took the top of the charts, looked erratic and unorganized in the graph. To the degree that Sentinel View graphs in the Incidents section, except for Top countries by recorded incidents, are rendered almost useless.

Sentinel View report – May 2023

The overall count for total incidents dropped by 100 million. Sounds like a lot, but given the number of attacks we recorded (1.6 billion), it is just less than 10% decrease. Still significant, but not as shocking as hundred millions sounds. The results for minipot traps have not changed significantly from previous month, it seems the attackers are pretty consistent in regards to what services interest them the most.

Sentinel View report – March 2023

Looking at Greylist and Incidents Statistics, March data seem to be quite stable in comparison with the previous month. The total count of incidents did not drop significantly from February as the difference is about 100k incidents. The total number of incidents in February, divided by the number of days in the month and then multiplied by 30.36 (average number of days in a month) is 20,543,356.40. For March, using the same rules, we get 20,461,799.03.

New Netmetr is called LibreSpeed and it is global

A long time ago, CZ.NIC started a project called Netmetr, which was performed in cooperation with the Czech Telecommunication Office (CTU). The goal was to provide a reliable Internet connectivity benchmark  that ordinary people can use to verify the parameters of their Internet connection. The cooperation went well and CTU was getting more and more interesting data about the quality of Internet connectivity in the Czech
Republic. Moreover, CTU decided to integrate the service into their systems and maintain it by themselves. They used the open-source software Netmetr and created Nettest – their own instance integrated into their  environment. That unfortunately meant that the Netmetr itself lost its main purpose and it no longer made sense to keep it running.
