FTP Exploit | Access Restricted
What has happened:
Some time in the evening a Plesk FTP exploit was detected, specific ports on our routers have been blocked to evade any attack from hackers to keep customer data secure.
What This Means:
Currently this means that access to FTP, SFTP & SMB are blocked so access is restricted to these services for the time being.
Action:
Software Providers have been advised of the problem and we are awaiting a course of action, we are currently awaiting additional information and a patch to be applied to resolve the exploit, once applied all traffic for these ports will be re-opened.
Thank you
