Nice big old port scan. Brand new server too. Just a few days old so there is nothing to find. Don't worry I contacted AWS. Stay safe out there.

I don't have any open ports. I do not care if I did. Port scanning is not authorized traffic.

I would love to see the support request from AWS for this.

Here you go:

Mandiant ASM scanners perform a variety of security-related data-gathering tasks, all intended to positively identify assets and their security posture. The gathered information is analyzed by our research team and proactively published to the owners of this information through our freemium product. No Collection task performed requires authorized access. It is intentionally designed to be light. While your IDS or WAF may have alerted on these scans, these are benign flags and are not indicative of malicious behavior.

If you have further questions, or would like to opt-out, please reply to this message and you will be routed to the appropriate team.

And abuse forms get filled out

Port scanning in and of itself is not really abuse.

Being a script kiddie that’s abusing AWS abuse report process on the other hand…
