Rohit
Carrying out some routine checks on the MFA logs and I noticed a bunch of failed login attempts from a single source that showed up multiple times. It felt like someone was guessing passwords over and over with no respect for rate limits. I should of barked at my script sooner but I slept on it. Does anyone else experience weird background noise in their logs when these scans go crazy. Kinda creeps me out how persistent the traffic is without any legit behaviour.
