I wouldn't doubt it might be the same person. Which was the other ARTCC/FIR?

Is there an estimate on how long the website will be down?

To those speculating, be aware that there are also a lot of automated scripts that wander the web wreaking havoc with sites that may have one or more security issues. I've dealt with this in the real world and you'd be amazed at what some of those scripts can do to some sites. It may not be a particular person with a grudge, but just a random attack by a script bot.

 

Best of luck getting your site back up gentlemen.
