Oh, I got a zillion port scans, and people hammering the service login, but never hacked.

Port scans drop to practically 0 once you start blocking all out of country IPs lmfao, I figure if the day ever comes where I might want to access my shit from a foreign country (without a VPN) or whatever I can just whitelist

Pretty much. Thankfully, the job I work at only does business inside the country it's located I'm. If that ever changes, they will be providing us with the IP's to whitelist them.
