The level of traffic is nearly at the same level as last period, but the traffic is more spread out through the entire month. Of the bigger reconnaissance attacks it is mainly MS SQL and VNC services that is exposed. VNC-1 is the service that had the most increase this period. China has now passed the US on the top 10 list. This is mainly due to searches towards MS SQL, but China has been active towards all services. Mexico has also had a big increase this period. When we look at worm and spam traffic there is, not unexpected, a small decrease this period as well.
