We’re seeing unusual patterns of login attempts against our customers netscalers with the only thing in common the user-agent:

Some are brute force circa 15000 attempts against a guessed (but incorrect) username

Some are 3-4 attempts against users who work at the customer organisation

Some are 5 attempts per very random (but not randomly generated) usernames

As for source countries, Russia is by far the biggest culprit followed by the United States then by a stack of other countries.  IP addresses used are in the hundreds.
