Hopefully these processors, companies start adding more security around attacks.  Constant attacks like this will cause an issue for BTC in the long run!

Europe’s primary bitcoin payment processor for merchants and free online wallet service, BIPS, was the target of a major DDoS attack and subsequent theft in the past few days that saw 1,295 BTC (just over $1m on CoinDesk’s BPI) stolen.
