DescriptionHaving open ingress means that your asset is exposed to some hosts on the public internet.
- If credentials are required to establish a connection, it still leaves open the possibility to bruteforce the credentials, or perform Denial of Service attacks.
- If no credentials are required, or credentials have been acquired by an attacker, then the asset is fully compromised.
#
Impact- Denial of service
- Possible exploitation of existing vulnerabilities
