KnowBe4 incident
Prevent and Protect - Administration Panel Slow or Inaccessible
Resolved after 23 hours 44 minutes, affecting Web Add-In and Web Add-In and 1 more, on March 19, 2026.
On Thursday, March 19, 2026, from approximately 11:56 \(UTC\) until 13:14 \(UTC\), some UK users experienced intermittent issues while attempting to log in to Prevent and Protect consoles. This incident was caused by a configuration timeout in our session management system. To resolve this issue, we increased the timeout limit, and the Prevent and Protect consoles returned to normal performance by 13:14 \(UTC\). To prevent this type of issue in the future, we have improved our timeout monitoring process and are verifying configuration consistency and optimization across our environments. No data loss occurred as a result of this issue.
