At the beginning of January, some clients of Koumbit were victims of attacks aiming to silence them by making their website inaccessible, leading to some network performance issues. First, we want to highlight that this type of attack does not involve any data leak. Second, as Koumbit workers, we want to explain how these attacks could affect you, and what are our solutions to deal with them.

Since its founding in 1991, the Coalition works on multiple fronts to defend the right to health care for the entire Quebec population, regardless of status or income.
