      UBC is responding to a global critical issue affecting technology used by some websites and web applications. As a precaution, some UBC websites or services may be temporarily unavailable from off-campus while they are assessed and security updates are applied. If a website you are trying to access is unavailable, this may be the reason. UBC IT and distributed IT teams are working to identify affected systems and restore any impacted services as soon as they can be safely returned to operation. No action is required from users at this time. We will be providing updates on a regular basis regarding this issue.

      We are seeing intermittent disruptions in UBC CMS. To increase stability and security, users from both UBC and non-UBC networks may be prompted for browser verification. This will involve an intermediate screen being displayed and the need to click "Continue" to reach the site. This prompt will occur once every eight hours, for every UBC CMS website, and is not a cause for alarm. We are investigating the disruptions and will provide an update when we have more information or when the issue is resolved.
