Summary Network Solutions says a hacking attack is causing service disruptions.
NEW YORK (AP) - The company s Facebook page offers few details, but the company says it s facing a distributed denial of service attack in which hackers direct thousands of computers to access a website all at once.
The fake traffic makes it difficult for legitimate visitors to get through.
Network Solutions Inc. registers domain names and provides computers and other technologies to host websites for companies, groups and individuals.
Some sites, including Network Solutions home page, may be slow or inaccessible as a result of the attack.
Wednesday s Facebook post says Network Solutions technology team is working to mitigate the impact of the attack.
The duration of the attack and the extent of damages were not immediately clear.
