DDoS attack on HostDime
| Posted by core2duo, 01-04-2013, 01:34 PM |
Helo ,
There is a large DDoS attack on HostDime. I don't know about the servers but I've seen on the FaceBook , they have just posted it on their official Facebook Page. Their message is written below :
"We are currently handling a DDoS attack against HostDime.com. All client services, CORE, phones & Live Chat are unaffected. More details will be posted here as they become available."
Hope , they will handle it soon. |

Hello everyone,
As the message said, the attack is limited to just our main website and no client services nor our Live Chat, CORE panel, or phone systems are affected. We are currently working to filter it but as I said, no client services are being affected.
Thank you and have a great day, |

Hello everyone,
At this time, the attack has been mitigated and all services appear to be operating properly again on the hostdime.com site. We will continue to monitor the situation closely but we do not forsee more issues.
Thank you, |

I see here and on your Twitter page roughly 5 hours ago the DDoS attack has been resolved. However, I am still unable to access your main page. |

The attack earlier was mitigated and things have been fine for the past 5 hours unfortunately as of 10 minutes ago the attack filters in place where over come by the attack. We are putting new filters in place to mitigate the new attacks. |

All good from OZ assuming everything has been resolved. |

Thanks for your patience, the attack was very unique and large. It was filtered and mitigated within 30 minutes of it being detected. Everything has been stable for close to 2 hours now. We will continue to monitor closely. |
