Why is China attacking my piddly servers

[Daryl Hunt]

I run video and gaming sites. Why is china continously trying to break into them at root level? Are they that stupid or are my sites actually containing some hidden government secrits.

Dont name your servers combatReadyActionPlans or something similar.

 

[B. Kidd]

Cuz China has gamers too, and your servers are 'piddly'?

Maybe looking to connect your clients to the other data they've hacked. Passwords, usernames, that kind of thing.
Or they are launching attacks from your servers on other targets?

They haven't been getting through. I have the servers logging each and ever attempt at root login. And am putting each and every IP address on the black list. They just change IP numbers and here they come again.

I guess I must have better security than the Gov or the Corps since they would have already have been in. And we paid how many hundreds of billions for their security?

As for naming my servers "combatReadyActionPlans" there goes my next plan.......
