Today, Namibia experienced interruptions to the .na domain for both private and public networks. 

The Ministry of Information and Communication Technology (MICT) in a media statement said it is aware that Namibia has been under constant attack from hackers worldwide, but this glitch is not one of them.

Dr Audrin Mathe, the ministry's Executive Director, stated that all routine upgrades on the Domain Name System server for the .na domain had been completed by lunchtime today.

He stated that the glitch only affected the routing of data traffic and that there was no breach of any other platform.

The government, through the Communications Regulatory Authority of Namibia, he says, is in contact with the Registrar of the .na domain to ensure that any possible harm is detected soonest. 

Dr Mathe stated that affected parties should report any suspicious activities to CRAN.
