    Technicians have identified a network DDOS/flood from 3:47pm to 3:55pm traversing one of our primary network links.

    Other redundant links remained online during this event, however the attack traffic resulted in increased latency during the event.

    Technicians are investigating the root cause, if the malicious traffic returns then DDOS scrubbing / filtering will be engaged.

  • Update:

    Technicians are continuing to work with our network carriers to deploy additional future mitigation strategies.
