Denial of Service - 11/5/09 8:55pm CST

Dear Customer,

On Thursday, 11/5/09 at approximately 8:55pm CST, alerts were generated indicating a degradation in connectivity. It was discovered that a denial of service attack was being carried out against some IP addresses on our network, causing extreme bandwidth spikes choking out legitimate traffic. We were able to determine the source of the attacks and take preventive action. The network was functioning normally again at approximately 9:15pm CST.

We take these issues very seriously and are working twards preventing these issues going forward.
