Windows 7 Twitter Attack Knocks Out Service Again
 

Twitter's servers were hit Aug. eleven with an additional distributed denial-of-service attack, sending the microblogging services crashing down.

Around 3 p.m. EDT, Twitter posted an updated to its status blog stating that it was experiencing a site outage and was examining the nature of the assault. Later,Office 2010 Product Key, Alex Payne,Microsoft Office 2010 Key, platform lead at Twitter,Microsoft Office 2010 Key, posted on a bulletin board that the Website was undergoing another wave of DDoS (distributed denial of support) attacks.

"Expect periodic slowness and errors until the attack passes or is countered by our operations team and hosting provider,Office 2010 Download," Payne wrote. "Updates will be provided as we get them."

The situation follows a DDoS assault Aug. 6 that knocked out Twitter and affected numerous other sites, including Facebook, LiveJounal and YouTube. In that case, some security researchers believe the DDoS assault was part of an effort to silence a pro-Georgian blogger with an act of hacktivism. The attack affected Twitter for several hours.

The Aug. 11 assault subsided relatively quickly. But, according to Payne,Windows 7, it picked up again later in the day.

"We're trying to work with [Twitter's service provider] to ensure minimal impact to the API, but in the near term there may be issues with OAuth and the Streaming API ," Payne wrote on the bulletin board. "This is a bit of a juggling act, as we're trying to coordinate our team, the operations team, our services provider's staff and specialists that they've
brought in for this issue."

The services appears to be functioning at the moment.
