Does anyone on the list have a default template email they use to notify
admins of attacks from their networks?

I would be interested in seeing them posted to the list (or to myself
directly if that's not possible).

        My template is pretty sparse compared to some.  I stick with a
"Jack Webb" approach (Just the facts, ma'am).

        I first receive the notice myself and, based on the severity of
the scan or earnest nature of the attack, decide whether to forward it
directly to the postmaster@, abuse@ and security@ contacts, as well as
those designated in the ARIN, APNIC, RIPE (et al) database.

        As an example, I scanned an internal system and generated this
report:


On Wed Jan 24 13:12:06 2001, the following scan was noted:

Connect from host: 192.168.10.201/192.168.10.201 to TCP port: 23
Connect from host: 192.168.10.201/192.168.10.201 to TCP port: 79
Connect from host: 192.168.10.201/192.168.10.201 to TCP port: 81
Connect from host: 192.168.10.201/192.168.10.201 to TCP port: 109
Connect from host: 192.168.10.201/192.168.10.201 to UDP port: 161
