May 18th, 2006 by Niranjan Kunwar
After being Spammed and Attacked, Blue Security has shut down its anit-spam service. According to the Netcraft’s Performance Chart Blue Security’s web site was unavailable for an extended period on Sunday and Monday, and again this morning.
The founder of Blue Security says it has shut down its anti-spam service, citing the impact of powerful DDoS attacks on its web site that began in late April. "After recovering from the attack, we determined that once we reactivated the Blue Community, spammers would resume their attacks." the company said on its web site. "We cannot take the responsibility for an ever-escalating cyber war through our continued operations."
