In Kentucky, the number has increased by 44 percent to 200 brute-force attacks per Windows server secured by Syspeace.
New Jersey is under increasing attacks, but at the same time the attacks on Syspeace-secured Windows Servers have decreased all around the USA. There have been 4 percent less brute-force attacks in the USA on Syspeace-secured Windows Servers during the past two weeks compared to the last fortnight. So far, this year there have been 940 brute-force attacks per Windows server secured by Syspeace in the USA. The brute-force attacks have gone up by 54 percent on a year-to-year comparison. That means the sum total of brute-force attacks in the USA that were blocked by Syspeace was 360,000.
