Data Access Problems from SSEC Data Center

The University's Computer Services department has stopped all traffic
emanating from the network where the SSEC Data Center's computers
reside, due to a computer on the network being hacked and used for DOS
attacks.

While we continue to ingest, and archive data,  most data is unable to
leave our network.  There is no estimate of uptime at this point.

We will keep you informed.
