[rustamsun]

"Hey guys, just got a notification from my VPS provider that someone's been trying to access my server for the past 48 hours. Luckily, their 2FA caught it, but I'm still freaking out. Has anyone else had a similar experience and can share some tips on securing your VPS after a breach?"

"Yo, guys I had a similar experience last year. Change your passwords ASAP and make sure to set up 2FA on all accounts, especially the ones connected to your VPS. Also, double-check your VPS logs to see if there were any suspicious activity prior to the breach."

"Dude, that's harsh. I'd recommend changing all passwords, updating your VPS's OS and software to the latest versions, and setting up a 2FA auth just in case. Also, consider reaching out to your VPS provider for assistance and to report the incident."

"Hey guys, just wanna confirm - have you guys checked your VPS provider's security logs to see if their end was breached too? If it was a 3rd-party exploit, it's possible the VPS provider might be at least partially responsible for the breach, just saying."
