"OVH SAS" is a French hosting/cloud company with offices/servers located all over the world (including the US). They cater to the SPAMmer/Hacker. Not all of the "OVH SAS" customers are bad guys. So, over the years, we have done our best to only block their clearly bad players. It's getting more difficult to determine so we have begun to block a wide ranges of "OVH SAS" computer IP's addresses. If your ISP (legitimately) uses "OVH SAS" services than you may find you can not reach the SSF. Email us and we will see if we can allow your particular (must be static) IP.

I have been retired for some time, but I have stayed active in some bar associations one of which is having a timely forum this Wednesday. It is a discussion on cyber-security, False Claims Act, procurement integrity, and more.

It has been apparent for some time that the internet is a tool for bad guys. Lately I have been getting emails saying someone is using one of my accounts and that I should use this link to log in my account. The link they provide is a false one and if I did try to log in they would have my password.

If the forum has anything that may interest this forum I will report back.
