Incident Report

**What’s happening?**
Since 22:30 UTC on 10 July 2025, a subset of resolvers in the EU-01 environment has not received the scheduled 15-minute domain database refresh. Recent policy changes (e.g., block/allow lists) applied after that time may therefore not yet be active on those resolvers.

**What’s NOT affected**
• DNS resolution continues to work normally.
• Existing policies remain enforced.

**Our actions so far**
We’ve identified the root cause and applied an immediate mitigation. We’re now monitoring the next update cycles to confirm the normal 15-minute rhythm is restored.

**After the fix**
Once the domain database refresh process is restored, all policy changes made during the outage will be propagated automatically—no further action is required on your side.

We apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we work to restore normal operation.
