    On Thursday 6th March 2023, Form3 identified an issue impacting the Form3 - CoP service. Investigation found that following a certificate rotation, authentication to the service was degraded based on how individual banks authenticate against the CoP service. A change was made, and subsequently the new certificate was redeployed to fully restore the authentication service.
