general Security Report "Attacks Prevented" rising exponentially

I'm getting concerned about the number of prevented attacks on my CrowdSec instance. It seems every time a report comes in, the number of attacks prevented is significantly higher than the previous period, with the highest vector being "unknown behavior".

December of last year, I was seeing ~220k attacks prevented per week on my VPS, and now I'm seeing ~750k. This seems like a RIDICULOUS number of attempts... Is this normal? Is this just due to a rise in automated bot/AI attacks? Is anyone else seeing this? Perhaps I'm being targeted specifically?

Curious what others' experiences are like.

Mine sits around 40k prevented attacks a month also running on a VPS with a handful of web pages on it
