Realtor.com Website – DDoS Internet Attack Interrupts Access Move, Inc. Combats Attack on its Website Services To Restore Operations to Customers and ConsumersJun 19, 2014 SAN JOSE, Calif., June 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Move, Inc., (NASDAQ:MOVE), a leading provider of online real estate services, reports that it is continuing to combat the distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack, which has interrupted its websites’ operations since it began mid-day June 17. Move’s technical team is working around-the-clock with the Prolexic division of Akamai Technologies, Inc., a leading DDoS mitigation service provider; other Internet security experts; and its network service providers to mitigate the attack and quickly restore operations. In connection with the attack, Move received a ransom demand, which it did not respond to. DDoS attacks on Internet-based businesses and associated ransom demands are unfortunately becoming more common. Move is consulting with appropriate federal law enforcement officials and other technology companies that have been targets of DDoS attacks in recent months to review best practices for responding. Law enforcement is working to determine the attack’s origin. DDoS attacks are sent by people or botnets, which are Internet-connected programs that work on tasks.

Are You Super? Superusing in Flexmls Flexmls allows users the ability to “superuse”. What does “superuse” mean? Superusing is the ability to log in as yourself but “switch users” and perform actions on the MLS as a different user. Any changes made will behave as if they were done by the person you are superusing “on behalf of”. The MLS will log these actions as being done by the “superuser” working as the agent (both users appear in the tracking log). This ability is particularly useful for unlicensed assistants or members of a team. It allows for increased system security and tracking of changes, but allows the same basic functionality as sharing a login (which is not allowed). Each user has an single individual username/account. The superuser can “do business as” the person who has granted them superuser permissions. To grant superuser access to users who need access to your account: 1) Download this form: MLS Superuser Authorization (be sure to list all specific people you want to allow to “do business as you”. 2) Email the completed form to: techsupport@columbusrealtors.com . 3) Instructional Guide available: “Being a Superuser” 4) Video Tutorial available: “How to Superuse on Flexmls”
Reminder: The required form must be filled out by the user who wishes to grant “other users” permission to “superuse” on their behalf. Download: MLS Superuser Authorization Original Post Date: 05/30/2014

Flexmls Feedback Request It has been slightly over 100 days since we transitioned to the Flexmls system from Tempo/Fusion. Conversions are always filled with a few unexpected glitches and there is always some level of a learning curve. The MLS staff has taken over 7000 calls or emails over this time period and the staff at FBS (your MLS vendor) took almost 5000 while they were assisting. We know there are some remaining issues that need addressed. One of primary importance is the ability to have emails sent out on an ASAP (hourly) basis. This is coming in either late June or early July. The other commonly reported issues are with Days on Market calculations and problems with the delivery of client emails. Both of these are ongoing issues that FBS is working to resolve. Other than the three items mentioned above we expect there are some things that you believe are either missing or could be done better. We would really like to hear about these. We are happy to learn about the things you like as well but we really want to know what we can do to make your new MLS system even better. The link below will take you to a page where you can provide any feedback you care to share. The submissions can be anonymous but if you include your email address we will make sure and reply to you. It might take a while for a reply based on the number of submissions received and the time it takes to research your specific inquiry but we will reply where possible. It’s not often you get asked to tell us if we are doing something wrong, what is broken or what we need to add but here is that chance. Please let us know how we can improve your new Flexmls system for you and your clients.
