Heartbleed bug security advice - your questions answered
You probably heard about the Heartbleed bug last week in the news, as it was all over the press. If by some minor miracle you didn’t, this is the best explanation we’ve found. EuroDNS has not been affected but we’ve had a couple of questions, so we thought we'd put your mind at rest.
