The Internet's Spooky

https://thesr.online has been on the internet for about 2 weeks now (5/12/23).
Here's a geo-map of thousands of malicious IP addresses that tried to bruteforce guess my server credentials to gain control of my server from just some of the logs.
Also, here's a sample of the latest traffic to my server from the logs, showing probably botnets, trying to extract credentials, upload binary data, and exploit old software vulnerabilities.
