Subject: Security incident originating from your network - 41.168.6.65 (ID#110330-3T34)

To the ns1.theweb.co.za/theweb.co.za/neotel.co.za/as6453.net security or network administrators,

Hello from AT&T Hosting and Applications Services. I am a Security Engineer here trying to track down a security incident that appears to have originated from your network on March 30, 2011. Please investigate a TCP sweep of port 22 from the IP 41.168.6.65 (ns1.theweb.co.za) and inform me of the results (account cancelled, user warned, etc). I will require this information in order to close the ticket on this activity. I have attached a portion of the log details as evidence. All times are EDT (GMT -4).

(NOTE: This is an automated email response to the incoming scan/attack.)
