In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Sep 22, 2026 - 19:00 UTC
Scheduled - Date: 22-September-2026 - 25-September-2026
Time: 7:00 PM - 6:00 AM UTC (each day)
Expected Impact: Minimal to none

Important Notice
---------------------
This maintenance activity will be performed daily during the maintenance window on each day.

Action Required Before Maintenance
-------------------------------------------
As part of this maintenance, egress IP addresses used by IBM Verify services will be updated. If your network restricts inbound traffic, you may need to update your firewall rules to allow the new IPs to ensure uninterrupted communication.

Review updated IP addresses: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/security-verify?topic=verify-egress-internet-protocol-addresses-ips

During the Maintenance Window
-------------------------------------
User services remain operational - Authentication, registration, and all user activities will continue without interruption.

Admin operations - A brief interruption may be seen when using admin APIs or while using the admin console to perform certain operations. A notification banner will appear on the admin console indicating temporary restrictions on configuration changes. The interruption is expected to last for only a few minutes.

What to do if you experience issues
------------------------------------------
We don’t anticipate any issues, but if you encounter any issues during the maintenance window, most can be resolved by retrying the transaction/flow. If the problem persists please contact IBM Support.
