WIKIPEDIA EXPERIENCES “INTERMITTENT OUTAGES”

Online encyclopaedia Wikipedia said it was experiencing “intermittent outages” when it appeared to have been the target of a cyber-attack in early September. The site was down over the course of one evening and early morning, affecting 94% of all users in Russia, America and the Middle East. A later statement on the Wikimedia German Twitter account claimed that the platform had been the victim of a “very broad DDoS attack”.
