DShield sensors report an uptick of scanning for tcp/6379, currently mostly originating from 61.160.x and 61.240.144.x, which are both CHINANET/UNICOM. tcp/6379 is the default port of the Redis NoSQL database (http://redis.io) and Redis by default accepts connections from any">Redis is designed to be accessed by trusted clients inside trusted environments. This means that usually it is not a good idea to expose the Redis instance directly to the internet
which makes us wonder if the service scanned for in this case is indeed Redis, or something else?" />
