Linux server attacks are nothing new. 14 years ago I was installing a server, Red Hat 7 I think, and in the hour or so after I installed it to the time I applied the patches it was infected with an Apache ssl trojan. Years ago I moved sshd off port 22, disabled password logins and use certificates after noticing my logs filling up with numerous daily attempts at hacking into sshd.
