It seems like for most impacted customers, the situation has improved markedly since approximately ~17h.<\/p>\n<p>EDIT 16\/09\/2021 10:12*: During the night we had two more attacks. We are working with the authorities, who have confirmed they are looking into it and are doing everything in their power to find the responsible individuals. We were contacted by an individual who verified he was behind the attacks, asking for a ransom.<\/p>\n<p>EDIT 13:18*: We are being DDoS&#8217;ed again. We are doing what we can to mitigate the issues.<\/p>\n<p>EDIT 15:41*: The attacks are still on-going. To give you a perspective of what we are dealing with, this is what our filtering service has been able to filter out so far:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/issues.edpnet.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Clipboard-September-16-2021-3_39-PM-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3517\" src=\"https:\/\/issues.edpnet.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Clipboard-September-16-2021-3_39-PM-1-1024x455.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"455\" srcset=\"https:\/\/issues.edpnet.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Clipboard-September-16-2021-3_39-PM-1-1024x455.png 1024w, https:\/\/issues.edpnet.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Clipboard-September-16-2021-3_39-PM-1-300x133.png 300w, https:\/\/issues.edpnet.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Clipboard-September-16-2021-3_39-PM-1-768x342.png 768w, https:\/\/issues.edpnet.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Clipboard-September-16-2021-3_39-PM-1-750x334.png 750w, https:\/\/issues.edpnet.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Clipboard-September-16-2021-3_39-PM-1.png 1041w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>EDIT 16:39*: We are monitoring the situation closely, and are discussing the situation both with our anti-DDoS provider and Belgian official instances.
