Apple Inc has partially restored its main website for developers, eight days after shuttering it in response to a cyber attack that prompted a harried upgrade to prevent future breaches.<\/p>\n

Apple’s developer site, which the company uses to communicate with its community of close to 6 million software developers, was back online on Friday, though some sections, including the forums and the member center, were still offline.<\/p>\n

The company had blocked access to the site after an intrusion last week and it is still not clear what data, if any, was compromised by the attack.<\/p>\n

An Apple spokesperson confirmed that the company had sent an email to its developer community informing them about the incident.<\/p>\n

“Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, software downloads, and other developer services are now available,” Apple said in the email and on a developer update page on the site.<\/p>\n

Seven of the 15 services on the website, including the iOS, Mac and Safari developer centers, were online at 8:15 p.m. ET on Friday (0015 GMT on Saturday).<\/p>\n

News of the developer site being restored was earlier reported by technology blog AllThingsD.<\/p>\n
