Executive Report: Remote Logins

Could someone tell me what a Remote Login on the Executive Report is? I'm pretty sure it's SSH logins but if someone could clarify this I would appreciate it. Found someone tried to login 481 times and failed so I need to make sure whatever this is is blocked from the internet.

Theres a hack circulating at the moment which exploits ssh. You will see a lot of failed remote logins unless you disable ssh access from foreign nets.

This is correct, remote logins are SSH logins. Check the sshd.log file for details.
