As I’m writing this post, a cyberattack against an organization from the East Coast of the United States is taking place. If you’re interested in learning such information in real-time, you can check out Sicherheitstacho.eu, a new cyberattack monitoring service launched by Germany’s Deutsche Telekom.

Besides a real-time overview of current attacks, recorded by a total of 97 sensors, the website also provides statistics such as the top 15 source countries, distribution of attack targets, total number of attacks per day and overall sum of attackers per day.

Available in English and German, the information presented on the site is gathered from resources such as The Honeynet Project, HoneyMap, Kippo, Glastopf and dionaea.

Currently, the figures from the site show that a total of 2,402,722 cyberattacks were recorded last month as originating from Russia. Over 900,000 were traced back to Taiwan and 780,000 to Germany.

Last month, the favorite target of attackers was the SMB protocol, with over 27 million attacks against it, followed by the Netbios protocol (937,000), Port 33434 (687,000), the SSH protocol (669,000) and Port 5353 (522,000).
