DDOS Update: FXOpen Wins!

I’m quite pleased to say that despite the attack continuing and getting even stronger, FXOpen’s web servers continue to operate uninterrupted by any and all attacks against them.

FXOpen’s IT department worked round the clock while the attack of last week was in progress. The result is that FXOpen’s web servers are now stronger than ever, able to withstand enormous attacks.

Thanks to all those who showed great patience while FXOpen’s IT went to war with the hackers!

FXOpen under massive DDOS attack

  • Author: admin
  • Date: March - 22 - 2011

Since late last week, FXOpen has been under attack by the biggest DDOS (Distributed Denial Of Service) attack seen in the company’s history.

 

The attack that originates in Russia, but uses botnets from around the world is currently abusing the websites with over 100million connections per day and rising. No web server can handle that much information without interruptions and despite having the best DDOS protection in a large server cluster, FXOpen’s websites are currently inaccessible however, trading via the MT4 terminal is completely unaffected.

 

On Friday, I spoke to the “hacker” who goes by the name of Ivan Ivanov of Khabarovsk, Russia and he demanded $5,000 to stop the attack. His demand has since risen to $15,000.

 

The attack was ordered by FXOpen’s Russian competitors (according to Ivanov). This kind of criminal activity highlights the need for vigilance when dealing with Russian Forex companies who may also be involved in money laundering, mafia and terrorism.

 

FXOpen’s IT team is working around the clock to find a solution and we hope some website functionality will return soon.

My hopes and prayers are going out to the brave people of Egypt who are protesting against the brutal regime of Hosni Mubarak.

Join me in wishing them a rapid resolution to this problem and that they get a new, fair and democratic government to replace Hosni Mubarak, the dictator that has ruled with an iron fist for over 30 years.
