Today's update from ISC indicates that this was collateral damage from an attack on one of the ccTLD registry operators which they host secondary auth servers for, and that for now it is mostly mitigated. We will continue to monitor. Having successfully stabilized, updated and rationalized OARC infrastructure over the past year, rest assured that after the past week's incidents, giving it greater geographic/provider diversity and higher availability rank high on our next round of development plans... Thanks for all the offers of help with this.

[dns-operations] ISC Network Issue affecting OARC services

We've been deploying various mitigation techniques, and tuning over time, but the attack continues. We are actively defending against the attack, and will let this alias know when we believe it's been resolved.
