Replying to Recent downtime July 2016

Beginning on July 22nd NS came under a DDoS attack. This has happened to us before, but this one was pretty severe. Essentially a DDoS attack is designed to overload a server or network, thus preventing any legitimate traffic from getting through.

This attack was severe enough that it was affecting several of our parent companies services, so the decision was made to shut down NS for the weekend until a proper solution can be put in place.

We have no evidence that any data was stolen in the attack, it seems the goal was exclusively to render NS inaccessible.

There may still be some features that aren't working correctly under our new hosting setup, but we will do our best to fix everything ASAP.

Sorry for the disruption.
