The zero-trust attestation service is experiencing a problem creating delays in the human verification of goodware vs badware within our typical 4hr window when our automated systems are unable to classify a program or file. Both local protection and our automated machine learning classification systems are operating normally therefore most customers will not see an impact. We will post our next update within 4 hours.
