US officials are investigating multiple attacks that caused widespread online disruption on both sides of the Atlantic on Friday.

The Department of Homeland Security has begun an investigation into the DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attack, the Guardian confirmed.

The incident took offline some of the most popular sites on the web, including Netflix, Twitter, Spotify, Reddit, CNN, PayPal, Pinterest and Fox News – as well as newspapers including the Guardian, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.

The attacks seemed to have been focused on Dyn, the company that runs the internet’s domain name system (DNS).

Amazon’s web services division, one of the world’s biggest cloud computing companies, also reported an outage that lasted several hours on Friday morning.
