Maintenance

Skyhigh Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) | US Only | March 16, 2024

Planned maintenance is scheduled to update a core piece of infrastructure within our solution to optimize the performance and increase the speed of the data processing mechanism during the following time duration:

Anticipated Start: March 16, 2024 (Saturday), 3:30 am UTC

Anticipated End: March 16, 2024 (Saturday), 12:30 pm UTC

Service Impact:

Data processing will be paused during the upgrade window which will result in delaying the availability of activities/events on the Skyhigh Dashboard.
All the config audit scans in progress will be terminated and no scheduled scans will run during the maintenance window. Once the maintenance window completes the next scheduled scans will process the changes done during the maintenance window. For continuous evaluation flows, we strongly recommend running an ODS scan once the maintenance window completes to track any changes to IaaS resources.

We don't expect any data loss or impact to DLP controls. Please contact Skyhigh Security Support if you have any questions or issues.
