Reporting SSH abuse

Hello list, I've been getting a slew of SSH brute forces coming from a university inside the US over the past week. Normally I wouldn't even bother with reporting, but I figured this would be a chance to clear this up. Fail2ban bans for 10 hours, and then the login attempts area right back at it. Repeat. An email with associated logs, and perhaps a little info from this side is the best I can come up with. I suppose there's not much else to report, though. Is there a 'standard' format to report ssh abuse? Like there is with vuln reporting? IMO, I doubt anything will happen, but if it were coming from my network, I'd like a notification. -- Who is to say that the next step in evolution is not a statistical chance but rather a by-product of our own will? That from here on out, nature stops deciding who survives and who doesn't, but our own decisions? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.
