• Interesting experiment, man the internet of servers looks like a scary place. Just a bunch of bots trying to hit exposed ports and what not to see what sticks. Mad respect to all the cybersecurity experts out there.

• I thought you were gonna expose a 14 year old kid's linux 😭

• 0:02 My prediction:
  Immediately joins a botnet 😂

• Clickbait nonsense. You have to purposely run known vulnerable software behind exposed ports. I really dislike how clickbait even exists in security topics because it makes me think "this person has zero idea what theyre talking about", as your title is incorrect without further context.

• you should make a video with old OS exposed to internet but with software firewall keept enabled

• I remembered when I accidently ran a socks proxy without a password on my server. It took someone 2 minutes until they found the service. After 20 minutes, the vps was already slowing down due to the huge amount of traffic that was routed through the server. Always read the instructions before launching an internet exposed service, lol.

• Sshnuke moment

• What happens if you expose 17 year old Linux (2007) to the Internet?

• Windows: Install me, nothing else, just install and I get hacked…
  Linux: Even if you install me I will not get hacked, you have to install some vurneable software first, then configure it and then maybe if you are lucky I will get hacked.

• Simple way don't let kids use computer

• Wow, that little bongo drum sound effect is almost as nostalgic for me as the Windows XP startup noise.

• Can you make one about old firewalls ?

• Man you should use that older version of Linux on a VPS SERVER, because mos of these scanners are having long list of host services IP addresses, they don't waste their time scanning the entire of internet as you may expect, you can try Digital Ocean, or Amazon AWS as test.
  You can do the same, on your home PC (a VM), by mapping an external IP to it, e.g. as insecure Proxy or maybe VPN where it won't filter any traffic, you will be surprise how fast it will get h1cked.

• Crazy how similar old linux looks like compared to new linux

• But what if we used an Amiga, or a BeOS machine?

• Would you get hacked if you used a very old and outdated phone? If so, how could you test that? w/ iPhone and android

• What I heard, it is possible to upgrade Linux before getting hacked, not something that Windows or macOS can say.

• I only understand like a fourth of what’s even happening but I love your videos

• How to learn cybersecurity skills like you ? Please i don't need read this cert like advice . A practical one like what concepts i need to cover. Internet data is confusing i don't know if i want defensive or offensive?

• Is this directly connected to the internet? Not behind a NAT?

• propfind is webdav proto

• Will you try exposing Windows NT 3.1 to the Internet?

• You can mirror a virtual switch port to another switch port sending it to wireshark. Thus looking at all the connections from the outside without the server beeing supported by wireshark

• No exposed ssh ?

• So there are people using nmap to search through millions of ip addresses? I know old stuff is vulnerable on the internet but I didn't think someone would find you that quickly?

• TLDR: nothing happens until you go specifically out of your way to make it insecure

• I have no idea what this accent is
