Just an update. @ScienceBasedMed has been under DDoS attack since Monday. The attack is ongoing and seriously affecting the functionality of the blog, with delayed loading and failures to connect. Our tech guy has taken countermeasures, and the blog is up, but the DDoS continues.

Years ago, I had a similar attack. Cloudfront and WpEngine were able to neutralize it. Wpengine is expensive for hosting wordpress, but it works in times like these.

I’m not that up on our tech stuff, but all we had at the time of the attack was Cloudflare.

Damn. I hope it blows over soon. I had tweeted at the official account a couple of days back. I’ve linked an article in my upcoming post so I’m hoping people will get to read it. All the best for getting this sorted out.
