Some cool SQL Server user names
One day when I checked SQL Server messages in Event Viewer I found a long series of unsuccessfull attacks. Somebody desperately tried to guess user names and passwords. The favourite ones were the following user names:
-
sa
-
sql
-
admin
-
administrator
-
administrador
-
root
-
access
-
db
-
database
-
datenbank
-
saadmin
-
web
-
webadmin
-
master
-
chef
-
server
So try not to use these user names and - if possible - don't make your SQL Server visible outside.
