Scott Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 We are aware of intermittent connectivity issues and slowness effecting all servers and the mddhosting.com website. A 6gb/s DDoS attack is hitting out datacenter who is currently in the process of mitigating the issue. We expect the issue to be mitigated shortly, however these attacks do tend to "evolve," so there may be additional periods of slowness and connectivity issues if that happens. Please follow this forum thread, as well as our Twitter and Facebook accounts for further information. www.twitter.com/mddhostingwww.twitter.com/mddscottwww.facebook.com/mddhosting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted August 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Who is the target of this attack? The target is not on our network. Even if it was, our privacy policy would prevent us from disclosing that information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael D. Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Who is the target of this attack?It's not one of our servers or customers - the attack is just so large that it's choking out connectivity across a few upstream providers. The facility is de-routing the attack and working to mitigate it as quickly as possible. I, myself, over Level3 am having no issues but depending on which carrier your ISP uses you may or may not notice some sluggishness until the attack is fully subsided.
