Security Locks
Elephant Security Locks were introduced in 2020, to mitigate malicious attempts to access the website. Currently, the API uses different layers to protect the resources, the Security Locks themselves, and the Take a Nap system.
Security Locks
The Security Locks, block IPs permanently for specific reasons. The system activate the Security Locks by default.
Security Locks message
Not access allowed from your IP
Further attempts without permission will block you permanently and the IP will be published into blacklists.
If you want to be removed from this blacklist, contact the web administrators.
Take a Nap
Take a Nap is a more flexible system, with a bigger scope. Recognizes two status, at peace and not at peace. When not at peace, the system forces Elephant is taking a nap status. The status is not absolute, not wide range, and won't be detailed here for obvious reasons.
Take a Nap message
Elephant is taking a nap!
And you may wonder, why?
There are several reasons that trigger the nap state for you, but usually is because some malicious software is sending attacks to the website.
Do not worry, Elephant is up and running, while waiting for these attacks to stop.
