Massive
Attack on This Blog
21
March, 2018
We
are experiencing a Denial of Service Attack on a massive scale. Our
extremely experienced tech team – who are serious professionals who
come from major IT players – have never defended an attack this big
on which someone is spending real resources. The attack is not over,
but our various levels of defence and diversion are currently
holding.
The
attack works simply by getting many thousands of bots from around the
world to interrogate the site with queries into its search facility,
thus crashing it. It is a type of attack we come under routinely, but
never on anything like this kind of scale. This is a proper effort to
get the blog off air.
EDIT:
Attack ongoing – latest figures.
