You may have noticed that your weekly newsletter was delayed this week. This is not an oversight, but rather a conscious decision for your protection. Our technical team suspected that our system might have been under threat of a China SQL Injection attack, and because the newsletter is linked to our website, we decided to minimise the risk and hold off sending the weekly update.
We had to close down the site to make absolutely sure there is no risk to any of our members or visitors and once we got the all-clear from our technicians, we quickly restored the website.
Clearly, technology is a double-edged sword. It enables us to reach audiences around the world quickly and efficiently. But the downside is always the risk of viruses, hacking and other forms of cyber-interference.
Be assured that the integrity of our systems and our audience's protection are our primary concerns, and we will take every step necessary to ensure both.
