There were numerous small service outages this month, mostly associated with an extended DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack on a server that shares our network.

The Inveress server resides in a data centre that houses many other servers, and to some degree these servers rely on shared networking infrastructure. One of the other servers on the local network was attacked, resulting in a lot of traffic on the network. This affected access to servers other than the one being attacked, including ours, for a few minutes at a time on several occasions.

Aside from these brief outages, the Inveress server was unaffected.

There were no service issues this month.

The only issue for October was a 25 minute period between 8:45am and 9:10am on 24 October when a network issue prevented traffic from reaching the server. Technically, the server itself never went down, however it was effectively unavailable during this period. The cause of the issue was unknown.

The only issue for September was a five hour period on 25 September during which webmail was unavailable due to a problem with server security certificates.
