We are currently monitoring an upstream maintenance affecting Dataforest’s DDoS protection infrastructure. Customers using Dataforest-backed DDoS protection in Germany and Romania may experience intermittent lost connections, packet loss, and short connection interruptions.
Dataforest reports that issues were introduced during scheduled maintenance on its DDoS protection cluster. During rollback attempts, they observed brief disruptions affecting both existing and new connections, and they have since removed the DDoS filters from production while restoration work continues. Basic network-level protection remains in place, but attacks exceeding that basic protection may not be fully mitigated until the DDoS protection cluster is fully restored.
