The level of cyber security incidents in Ireland over the last week is unprecedented.

Many ISPs in Ireland were DDOS attacked this week, two per day, for a few hours early each morning (typically from approx. 8am to 11am)

Each affected ISP received a warning that major DDOS attacks would start on Friday 21st May unless each company paid 0.5 bitcoin. Each day after the 21st May this ransom will increase by 0.5 bitcoin per ISP until the ransom is paid.

So far out Data centre provider CloudCIX and our customers have not been affected by these attacks but we remain on very high alert. We have techniques to mitigate DDOS attacks but depending on the scale they can be disruptive.

CloudCIX are operating at level 5, the highest level of threat meaning a DDOS attack is imminent.

The group doing these attacks call themselves 'Fancy Lazarus' but this may be them adopting the name of another criminal group.
