#4 Having worked on web servers and having monitored the server logs as part of my job, I've known for decades that certain countries engage in vulnerability probes of servers all over the internet. The worst offenders appeared to me to be 1) China, 2) Russia, 3) Ukraine. Other top offenders were Turkey, Romania, Iran and Malaysia. There were others. I think it was generally assumed at the time that China in particular was engaged in state sponsored cyber warfare. How much of this bullshit from other countries was state sponsored and how much was just individual knuckleheads I do not know.

I advocated with all the influence I had in my company that we should block all of the IP addresses from all of those countries from access to any of our servers. I was overruled for reasons I cannot fathom so, on my own, I blocked all of the individual IP address of offenders I found in the logs to the servers I administered.

All that time I wondered if American spooks conducting vulnerability probes and hacking servers in other countries. Well, of course they were.
