Update: 20:30 – Maintenance has now been completed and all hosting services have been restored.

---

As you may have seen in the media recently, there has been an industry-wide hardware-based security vulnerability disclosed.

Keeping our customers secure is our top priority and we are taking precautions to ensure users of our hosting services are not exposed to these vulnerabilities.

Our software vendors have released a software security update to mitigate the hardware vulnerability.  In order to apply the updates we need to perform reboots of our hosting servers.

We have scheduled emergency maintenance this evening from 20:00 GMT.  Starting at this time we will begin rebooting our shared hosting & VPS hosting platform servers.

As a result, email, web hosting, VPS servers etc will be unavailable for a short amount of time.

All our systems will be monitored during and after the update and we will endeavour to restore normal service as soon as possible.

If you have any queries, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
