Summary

A widespread Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack on the DNS provider Dyn led to significant performance issues across the internet, affecting services like Twitter, Netflix, Zendesk, PayPal, and Box, making them inaccessible to many users for several hours. Box's teams, including engineering, networking, and operations, worked diligently to restore full access to their services, including the Box API, and have confirmed that the issue was not a data breach, with no impact on service integrity or customer data. Box has apologized for the disruption and is exploring ways to prevent similar incidents in the future, encouraging users to visit their community page if they continue to experience access issues.
