Re: Incident Response

My general question is just when do I need to do 
something other than just check my firewall logs for
the
source address and verify they weren't successful in

gaining access anywhere vs. actually reporting an 
incident.

Why do anything?  The general sense is that the return
doesn't really justify the time required to report
such things.  So, if the scans are unsuccessful, why
bother with them at all?  Seems like a colossal waste
of time...
