Over the weekend, we had an outage that took down the Cordova internet for two hours and impacted some customers for an additional five hours. Our Yakutat services were not impacted.

We want to make clear that this incident was completely unrelated to the recent cyber-attack and that this outage was due to upstream providers. Our primary internet carrier had a major hardware malfunction in Valdez, and the high availability configuration to dynamically reroute services failed, thus impacting Cordova. We are working with our partners to further improve our methods for testing resiliency configurations and readiness.

Incident Summary: On Monday, September 21, at approximately 2:00pm AKST, certain employees at Cordova Telecom Cooperative (CTC) received an email threatening a Distributed-Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack if a ransom was not paid. Each employee believed the message to be a phishing attempt. However, as threatened, approximately one hour later the network was overwhelmed by a DDoS attack from millions of devices, affecting all internet and subsequently, wireless, services. CTC worked tirelessly to contain and mitigate the incident and was operational around 8:00pm. The FBI, FCC, and CISA have been notified of the incident, and Cordova Telecom is cooperating in their investigations. Currently, no regulatory or other notifications are required, and there is no indication of a data breach. All impacted customers will receive a credit for the outage which will be reflected on their November billing statement.

A Distributed-Denial-of-Service (DDoS) is an advanced cyberattack that overwhelms a network by flooding it with illegitimate and large-scale traffic. The image helps illustrate what a DDoS attack is and how it can impact a rural community.
