FAQ

Oh my gosh, I'm being HACKED!!!

How do I report the hacker to my ISP?

I'm seeing lots of attacks, is this normal?

Summary
A hacker may be scanning your system to see what services are available.
Details
Sometimes this is done in preparation for a future attack, or sometimes it is done to see if your system might have a service which is susceptible to attack.
A false-positive may occur if an application or user is legitimately connecting to several ports; to determine whether this is likely, look at the port to see if it is an expected port number.
