Attacks
As a web host here in the US, I am always blocking ip’s from China, Iran, and Korea. However, according to Akami’s 3rd quarter report, global trends in malicious activity have shifted this quarter. Russia and Brazil took the top spots from the U.S. and China as the two largest attack sources, accounting for 22% of total observed attacks
