SSH Brute Force Attempts — GeoLocation

A couple of weeks ago, I posted regarding the logs of some SSH bruce force attempts I had logged on my server, and was looking through. One of the comments was asking for geolocation of the IP Addresses. Tonight I decided to make use of the service available at ip2location.com and geolocate each of the IPs that I had. I'm actually fairly impressed with the service, you can do 20 lookups per IP per day unregistered and if you register you can do 200 lookups per IP per day. I registered and then pasted my entire list into a textbox they provide and it looked them all up at once and provided the results.

Here are the screenshots. It was a small set of IPs, but the top three countries were China, USA, Poland.
