As a bit of a background, our datacenter (bnshosting.net) studiously monitors all incidents involving our network. Each incident is captured in several log files that we process and chain into abuse emails.

These abuse emails are then emailed out to the abuse contact listed for the network AS (autonomous system). Here is a sample:

It does take a lot of work but we do get the occasional thanks for alerting them of possible compromised servers. Thus in a small way, we are helping keep the internet safer for others.
