When I set this site up I just threw it up, made some aesthetic changes, and then left it for what it was. While I am a #geek and total #techocrat I have zero interest in web development. That includes WordPress. I do it because I have to for &lt;reasons&gt;, not because I enjoy it.<\/p>\n<p>So fast forward to today where More Knowledgeable Me now understands that this site is <em><strong>constantly<\/strong><\/em> under attack by hackers. I have no idea how but it stood up on it&#8217;s own for a long while. Now, I&#8217;ve got a ton of security provisions in place. I can see what they try to do, and everything is just blocked.<\/p>\n<p>The thing is I have no idea why this site is targeted at all. I get.. what&#8230; 5 visitors a year? My mom doesn&#8217;t even read it! So.. what the hell? Why friken bother? Go bug Apple or something. I hear they got good porn on their cloud service.<\/p>\n<p>BTW If you&#8217;re the guy in Vietnam trying to brute force guess the admin account user name.. just give up. You&#8217;ll never get it. The username is like a shit ton of random char. It isn&#8217;t &#8220;aadmin&#8221;, or &#8220;test&#8221;, or &#8220;author&#8221;, or &#8220;badmin&#8221;, or all your other stupid guesses. Actually to be fair I have no idea if you are physically in Vietnam, but that is where your static IP service is located.<\/p>\n<p>Another funny thing is I have identified attacks from bots running on a major medical corporation&#8217;s network. Not naming names (I sent them a courtesy email&#8230; &lt;shrug&gt;), but you&#8217;re pretty lame if you let something like that go on and you do that sort of business.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Mess with the best, die like the rest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not those guys.
