Re: [asterisk-biz] PBX Hacker IP List

The Project Honey Pot looks great.

I'm not too keen on white listing though. It would be hard to verify
an attacker's IP's that hasn't been identified as bad yet. I'm sure
some hackers would troll the black list and try to add their IP's as
known good. I don't think this would be some automated mechanism for
PBX server subscription, at least not yet.

I'm thinking more along the lines of a central list, updated by
community participants, to add IP's that have attacked them, with
date/time of the attack. It would be up to the PBX admin to employ a
filter with those black listed IP's or disregard the list all
together.

Thanks
