CEO highlights substantial resources behind the ongoing cyber assault, potentially linked to state-sponsored efforts.
Elon Musk, the CEO of social media platform 'X', announced that the service is currently facing a significant cyber attack that is believed to be backed by substantial resources.
In a post on 'X', Musk stated, 'There is (and still is) a massive cyber attack against X. We experience attacks daily, but this attack has been executed with large resources.
Either a coordinated group and/or a state is behind it.
Tracking is ongoing...'.
On Monday, 'X' experienced widespread outages, with reports from over 40,000 users indicating that they were unable to access their accounts, according to data from a digital outage monitoring site.
As of now, 'X' has not released an official statement detailing the nature of the cyber attack or identifying any potential perpetrators.
Efforts are reportedly underway to restore full service to the platform.
