@camilla Re: I'm not... However
"If I want my ports scanned I can ask, give permission, for someone with an appropriate and legitimate service to do so.
I do not need some dweeb dropping in on my open ports saying they are or appearing in my logs as being some sort of security scanning service."
And that is exactly the mindset that the policy and lawmakers are coming from.
If malicious hackers were nice people then they wouldn't be malicious hackers. So it is, quite literally, an anarchists state out there in Intercyberweb Land. Those that know this will have a better chance than those that don't. And now with added GDPR you better hope that your house is in order because hacked/leaked data along with insufficient GDPR consideration will result in bankruptcy.
So as far as I am concerned, if I put anything online I fully *expect* it to be scanner, probed, prodded and slapped for good measure. I don't say 'How dare you!'
But hey. That is just me.
