Our Network Engineers are currently working diligently with our upstream carriers as well as a network security firm to combat the attack and will continue to do so until all of the issues are resolved. Our Senior Leadership has also been in contact with the FBI. The FBI is considering these events a national security issue due to the number of firms impacted, the magnitude of the attacks, and the persistence of these attacks.
