#Bandwidth ddos attack full
The company will discuss more about its response to the DDoS attack, as well as its third quarter 2021 financial results and full year 2021 outlook, in its upcoming earnings conference call. Accordingly, Bandwidth will adjust its full year 2021 financial outlook commensurate with its reduced revenue expectations. We believe we are now stronger than ever, and are focused on serving our customers."īased on preliminary usage data and currently known information, the company estimates that the impact of the DDoS attack may reduce CPaaS revenue for the full year 2021 by an amount between $9 million and $12 million, inclusive of the aforementioned $0.7 million revenue impact in the third quarter. While that traffic is beginning to come back, we believe we will see a top-line impact of that lost volume primarily in the fourth quarter. "Consistent with our ethos to do the right thing for our customers, we helped some of our customers divert traffic from our platform during the attack to mitigate impacts to their businesses. Despite the impact from the DDoS attack at the end of September, our revenue results for the third quarter exceeded our guidance," said David Morken, Bandwidth's CEO.

"I am proud of our team's performance to combat a series of sophisticated DDoS attacks aimed at Bandwidth and our industry. The company's preliminary revenue results for the third quarter of 2021 remain subject to ongoing quarterly close procedures. The DDoS-related decrease in third quarter 2021 revenue is in-line with the company's disclosure contained in the Form 8-K filed on October 6, 2021. These results include a decrease of approximately $0.7 million in third quarter 2021 revenue from lost transaction volume and customer credits due to the DDoS attack. This exceeds third quarter guidance for consolidated revenue of $123.6 to $124.6 million and CPaaS revenue of $106.1 to 107.1 million. The company currently expects third quarter 2021 consolidated revenue to be approximately $131 million, or 54% higher than the prior year period, and third quarter 2021 CPaaS revenue to be approximately $107.4 million, or 46% higher than the prior year period.
