Banner INB will be unavailable for approximately 15 mins in order to resolve the intermittent login issue some users are experiencing. This will only affect Banner INB and if you are currently logged into Banner you will get disconnected. The downtime will begin in 10 mins and I will confirm with you all once Banner is back up.
Thank you for your understanding and we do apologize for the inconvenience.
Users maybe experiencing intermittent Banner INB login issues. This impacts Banner INB only.
We are currently investigating the cause and will provide updates as they are available.
UPDATE:
Today at 1:55PM, Malwarebytes released v.12 update that has fixed the network connectivity problem. OIT has tested the update and can confirm that it resolves the issues.
We highly recommend rebooting your computer at your earliest convenience after the update is installed.

Earlier today Malwarebytes released a signature update that is causing computers to lose network connectivity. This is a widespread issue and are affecting anyone who has Malwarebytes installed.
The temporary workaround is to disable Malicious Web Protection under Settings. This will restore network connectivity. Once Malwarebytes releases a new update the Malicious Web Protection feature should be turned on again.
We will be monitoring the status of this issue and apologize for the inconvenience this may cause.
