Re: OT: What Does This Mean?
All machines on the net will get probed. Some are automatic scripts, some are installed programs (trojans/viruses) from someone elses machine and they might not know its doing it, some might be accidental.
If a random roaming probe finds something "interesting" then you might get a return visit which continually tries different things and different ports. Thats something worth reporting.
Alot of what I do is forensics of systems that are broken into. Anymore its getting hard to find any to work on. Even honeypots dont work anymore.
