Situation Update (from Pandora)

Thats not 100% correct, that kind of attack is not called a brute force attack, its a denial of service attack. A brute force attack is when you try to crack something (for example an encrypted file, or a password) by trying every possible combination of characters there is as the key. until you find the right one.

Nice to get an update on the situation, I hope you can have this resolved soon.

Believe by 'brute force' they were referring to the method itself rather than the technical term. They've called it a DoS in previous posts; just referring here to the method's lack of finesse or precision. It's just wave after wave of info.
