Re: Decrease in 1433 Scans?

I am still recieving hits, although we only get hit by a single host, 
around once every 1-1.5 hours, albeit multiple connections per hit. So, 
our answer here would have to be - steady.

cheers,

Hello

Access attempts to port 1433 have been steady all this week, with tons of
attempts every hour showing up in our firewall log; however, I have not
had a single attempt since 5:43 AM EST (no EDT here in Indiana).

The firewall is still logging and the integrity of my access-list appears
to be fine.  I doubt our uplink provider is doing this, as I can reach the
firewall if I attempt to connect to port 1433 with nmap from a remote
system.

Anyone else seeing this?
