They only paid the ransom because of extreme pressure from the other 100 companies in their datacentre that were also offline. The ransomers contacted them after the second, much stronger and more sophisticated attack to deny responsibility for the second DDOS. https://protonmaildotcom.wordpress.com/ https://protonmaildotcom.wordpress.com/
- celticninja 11y agothat was partially my point, they paid the ransom, now they are subjected to another attack. If it is a new attacker perhaps they knew that a ransom had been paid therefore it was worth the attack, perhaps on the basis that any new attack may not even have to last as long as the initial attack. Personally the problem should rest with the data host, if the issue spills over to other customers then they need to mitigate that how they see best, I dont see it as being ProtomMails fault.
