Attack Observatory

What attackers are trying right now

Real, unsolicited login attempts against monitored infrastructure, captured as they happened. Someone scanned, picked a device, and tried to authenticate. This is what they were after — and exactly what they typed.

How this data is captured

Preemptive defense turns an attacker’s first move into intelligence — before anything of value is touched.

Moving, not static

Static defenses get mapped, and a map is all an attacker needs. Automated Moving Target Defense keeps changing what can be seen and reached, so the picture an attacker assembles is stale before they can act on it. Effort gets spent on ground that has already shifted.

The attempt is the signal

A blocked connection is not a solved problem — it is the beginning of an investigation. Each attempt here carries context: which device drew interest, from where, on which service, and with which credentials. That is what a block count can never tell you.

Credentials, captured intact

The usernames and passwords shown are recorded exactly as submitted. They are the live contents of real attack dictionaries — and a direct answer to the question every operator should ask: would these have worked on my network?

How to read this page

Method

Window: a rolling 30 days of captured activity.
Refresh: the page rebuilds hourly from the live capture store.
Attack Target: the device the source was attempting to authenticate against.
Attempts From Source: that source’s full total for the window, not just the rows shown.

Limits worth stating

Country is derived from the regional internet registry allocation for the source network. That is a registration fact, not a physical location — traffic routed through hosting providers or VPNs will show the registered country of the network, not the operator.
A source address is not a culprit. Many are compromised third-party hosts being used by someone else.
Volume is capped for readability at the 25 most recent attempts per source, so one high-volume scanner cannot fill the table.

See It On Your Network

This is one network’s view. Now picture your plant floor.

PacketViper runs inline in OT and IT networks — agentless, non-intrusive, and surgical enough to scope enforcement to a single device instead of an entire subnet.
