[Comtec Announce] [QUAR] [Core Network] Service Alert 27th February 2016 - Update 2

[David Croft]

This is an incident notification regarding our core network.

Date: Saturday, 27th February 2016
Start time: 23:07 GMT
End time: 23:33 GMT

Services affected:

Core network.

Report:

At 23:07 we observed unusual traffic volumes and consequently packet
loss across our core network as links were saturated.

Comtec NOC worked with our partners and transit providers to mitigate
the attack and traffic levels had returned to normal as of 23:33.

Due to the changeable nature of denial of service attacks, we continue
to monitor the situation carefully. Barring any further development,
this is the final update.

Comtec NOC is tracking this issue under ticket [#PUW-819-39426].

Regards,

David Croft
