Equity Poker Reports DDoS Attacks
The most recent poker network to report Distributed Denial of Service attacks is Equity Poker joining Merge and Winning Poker networks. The network released a statement saying, "DDOS attacks at EPN have occurred intermittently across the past six weeks, causing some short-term disruptions to Network connectivity and frustrating poker room outages." The company also assures customers that Equity developers were able to protect player information and account balances despite the attacks. "We are working behind-the-scenes to strengthen the network mechanisms and structures necessary to deal with such assaults on our operations and we hope to reach a solution shortly that will fix the outages our network's operators and their players have had to endure during recent times," the statement continued. Equity's tech department do not believe that the network is the focus of the DDoS attack but is part of a "...more calculated wider assault on online poker businesses."
