李小加:系统出现漏洞非人为破坏 停市决定不能轻易做
阿思达克 09-06 10:37

港交所(00388.HK)昨日(5日)衍生产品市场的电子交易系统(HKATS)出现连接问题,并自二时起暂停衍生产品下午及收市後交易,交易所与相关系统供应商经过详细的调查及检测後,决定今天(6日)恢复衍生产品市场之交易。

港交所行政总裁李小加表示,今日市场已正常运作,而港交所已找到问题所在,确定是源於一个系统软件的漏洞,目前漏洞已修补,但由於仍需要时间进行测试,所以目前市场正使用旧一个版本的系统,强调今日已正常开市,对市场无影响。被问到为何昨日不即时转换至後备系统,他解释是因为後备系统中亦有这个漏洞,加上昨日一开始只是一部分客户遇到问题,所以当时判断是连接出现问题。

至於为何下午二时才决定停市,李小加解释停市是一件大事,不能轻易做,市场在任何条件下都尽量要开市,不能一碰到问题就先停市,但由於发现越来越多客户受漏洞影响,下午二时认为市场交易已经不再有序,市场有可能出现混乱时,便需要按市场情况、气氛作出决策。

他又指,IT体系完整及稳定是港交所的最高考虑因素,强调港交所是世界唯一一个在过去近20年仅出现一次盘中停市的交易所,口碑、纪录亦非常优秀,对於今次出现问题感到遗憾,会不断检视所有程序,虽不能保证永远不发生这样的事情,但会尽一切努力减少出现类似事件的可能性。

他又强调今次事件是由於系统提供商提供的软件出现问题,并不是人为破坏,惟昨日港交所网页未能连接则是因为受到DDoS进攻,与期货市场发生的事情没有关系,强调其核心交易体系是私人网络,十分难攻击,而公司网站则是大众都能看到,故会受到DDoS这类的攻击。
