An update from the Security Industry Authority on the impact of today's global technical issue on SIA operations.

We are aware of the ongoing global technical issues affecting a number of Microsoft services.

These issues have affected some of our systems. We can still grant, refuse, revoke and suspend licences, but some of our response times may be slower than normal. The technical issues have also affected some of the systems we use in our ACS approval processes. We are working to minimise the impact this is having on our operations.

Please also note that emails sent to us or by us may be delayed.

We are continuing to monitor the situation closely. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
