Shut down the whole US. I bet the contractors will get that up in a few days.

You have to be pretty dumb to take this long to fix it.

Well, yes, in fact CO trouble DID cause trouble nationwide. The piece of equipment that is in trouble resides in the CO. Yes, that's right - still in trouble. No hack, no disgruntled employee, no virus. When i see what their "official" word is, I may have further comment once it's fixed.

Certainly sounds like a DDoS. Also sounds like the sort of thing that COULD have been triggered by disgruntled former techs or IT folks. And CTL has certainly made plenty of those lately.

Either way, hope this gets fixed quickly.

This doesn’t help our image or gather us any more business. Who knows what exactly happened, but the one thing I can tell you it’s not do to being over staffed... LOL

Anymore contractors are the first to be called out for outages, we've lost so much experience and knowledge the last few years within the company.
