Somewhat related due to a weak password a mail server from a community I'm involved in send out lot's of spam mail, after analysing the log files I've had over 1500 different IP addresses that logged in to send spam, about 10 mails for each address. ASN and subnets where spread across over the whole world. It seems like these attacks are coordinated using vast botnets and the use of single ssh public key here seems to confirm this. I had similar experiences going after attacks on WordPress instances and there I've also found attacks spread out across lots of hosts.
I'm wondering if it's possible to pin down those behind these attacks, there must be mistakes.
