  1. investigating Feb 23, 2026, 09:40 PM UTC

    We have received reports that UA SSO logins are currently experiencing slowness resulting 'Connection Reset' errors. The OIT PAWS team is currently investigating with OIT Networking and IAM, and we will be making updates at 3-hour intervals. Repeated attempts to log in do have a chance of working-- this is the only known workaround at this time. Thank you for your patience during the resolution of this issue!
