Bursa Malaysia website target of distributed denial of service attack

KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 14): BURSA MALAYSIA BHD []’s website was the target of a distributed denial of service (DDOS) attack.

It said in a statement early Tuesday that this resulted in users experiencing intermittent access to its website on Monday evening.

"Contingency measures were activated to provide continued access to the website. As a result of the contingency measures, access by international users may still be temporarily affected. Users in Malaysia are not expected to experience any disruption,” it said.

However, Bursa Malaysia’s other systems were not affected during the incident and trading in its securities, derivatives and Islamic markets continue to operate normally.
