Asylum Announcement


Recommended Posts

Hello all


As many of you know, we recently suffered from a database issue on 01/05/2019 at roughly 2000. Many of you were affected due to this incident and for that, I apologize. I wanted to be as open as I can be in regards to this situation. Our previous developer Windmere was found to be the individual responsible for these malicious acts. Our first priority at the time was to restore our service to you. In the day's following, we conducted an internal investigation to determine the severity of these acts and to identify the actors in this situation. We have taken internal steps to reduce the ability for this to happen again in the future. We again appreciate all the support you guys have given us. We have no further comments in regards to this incident. We want to focus on steaming forward to bigger and better things. 

With regards,

Asylum

+1 please elaborate, what did Windmere attempt to do?  Did he have code that was meant to wipe everything or what?

Wiped a common table in the database...  We restored the data but wanted to make sure everything was perfect.

 

Table was playerID lookup...  thats it.  Your data was there, but not related to your player data because that was wiped.

 

Thats it, simple fix pretty much.

We want to be completely open with you guys, this post was @Mitch (IFRIT)'s idea, so props to him for keeping everyone in the loop.  

 

We also have to be careful of what information is given, because, it does expose how our exDB works.
