In short, we can safely say there is a good chunk of the EC2 users who left their front door open (actually with this analogy they also left their back door, side window, and garage open). Our analysis showed that users are: Using... --------------------------------------------- https://feeds.feedblitz.com/~/93538286/0/alienvault-blogs~A-Drafty-House-Ana...
