The results of a security experiment were published this week, in which an Asterisk PBX was set out in the wild to see who would attack it and how:

What I find particularly interesting is that people/bots are scraping support websites looking for valid IP’s of PBX’s, and valid credentials!

A good reminder to everyone on this list to not publish the IP of their PBX’s, or even account names (in postings) as they will be quickly targeted….
