Just as hams were making their final preparations for ARRL Field Day here in the US and in Canada, the ARRL was scheduling downtime for Logbook of the World, beginning on June 27th. The ARRL called the process part of the "ongoing modernization of the ARRL systems infrastructure." When completed, the system is to be fully operational on the cloud. The ARRL said the move will ensure that users are protected from physical and network-based security risks.
The last major service disruption for LoTW was last year, when it was one of several ARRL services that were compromised by a ransomware attack. The ARRL announced its return to service not quite two months later, on July 1st.
In making the announcement of this year's upgrade, CEO David Minster, NA2AA said on the ARRL website that LoTW would return to full online operations on the 2nd of July -- or sooner, if possible.
