Sonatype Community,

Friday’s **CrowdStrike incident**, where a routine software update caused a cascading failure across thousands of critical systems worldwide, is a stark reminder of the fragile interconnectedness of our digital world. While this incident was a misstep, not malice, it exposes the vulnerability of our essential services.

**We want to reassure you that Sonatype infrastructure and solutions are NOT impacted by this incident, and we will continue to actively monitor the situation.**
