This bit me recently. I have a certificate for homelab.myname.com, and as any public-facing IP address, I get the expected brute force ssh login attempts for users 'root', 'git', 'admin', etc...

But I was terrified (until I remembered about the public cert) to find attempts for users 'homelab' and 'myname' -- which, being my actual name, actually corresponds to a user.

It's obviously my fault for not thinking this through, and it's not a terrible issue, but thinking I was under a targeted attack was quite the scare!
