FS#7340 — vKS GEO: NWK, CHI, SNJ, DAL
Scheduled Maintenance
Report for Network & Infrastructure
Completed
The VKS GEO has has been abused and as a result has been used to launch attacks. This morning an attack of 80Gbps has been launched from hundreds of VKS Virtual Servers.
We are working on the netflow in order to see who is responsible for the attack to cut it but the situation became too urgent and very dangerous.
So we will cut VKS routing to isolate the abuse and clean the infrastructure. This may take several days.
Update(s):
Date: 2012-09-21 13:40:21 UTC
Up. We finish the job of scanning and detection attacks with automatic switching via IP in antihack.
Date: 2012-09-20 20:28:42 UTC
We interrupted again the service on the 4 POP in the USA.
We are going to reopen it tomorrow morning to finish it
and then we will close automatically all the hackers.

The system of netflow was (finally) set up
on the mPCC and the service was restarted.
We see (finally) what happens.
