I confirm that the University’s IT systems were not affected by the CrowdStrike Issue.

There is no longer a requirement for this awareness message to be active.

Thanks for your patience.

An update with regards to the high profile global issue being reported across the media of ongoing major IT outages affecting airlines, banks and media.

I wanted to reassure you with this update that the University’s IT systems have not been affected.

There have been 2-3 issues with 3rd-party suppliers of cloud based services to UoD - these have all been restored to service quickly (by the respective 3rd party supplier).

DTS staff will continue to monitor the situation.

Dear students and colleagues,

There is a global issue being reported across the media this morning of major IT outages affecting airlines, banks and media.

Microsoft have issued a worldwide warning of possible issues affecting Microsoft 365 apps and services.

I wanted to assure you that, at the time of writing, the University’s IT systems do not seem to have been affected.

We will continue to post any updates on the Digital Technology Services system status page https://www.uodit.info/

If you do experience any service issues then please do make us aware https://www.dundee.ac.uk/guides/contact-university-service-desk-using-help4u.

I would also ask that you remain vigilant when opening any emails received from unfamiliar addresses or which look suspect, or clicking on any unsolicited or unfamiliar links. Vigilance is our own first line of defence against cyber attack.
