Why The National has been suffering from technical issues

SINCE Monday, this website has suffered some intermittent disruption which may have affected your reader experience, as well as your access to our associated digital editions and apps.

This has been caused by a series of cyber-attacks known as “denial-of-service” (DDOS).  We have been able to contain most of these attacks, but some readers will have experienced a disruption. 

Please be assured that no reader or subscriber data has been accessed or compromised, and none of our systems have been damaged.

We appreciate this must be frustrating and apologise for these issues. In the meantime, thank you for your patience and your ongoing support.
