On May 15, 2026, some users visiting docs.fluidattacks.com encountered errors for approximately 15 minutes during a planned security update. Our team detected the issue and had it fully resolved within the same day.
We were rolling out a security improvement to the site when two parts of the update ran out of order. One piece finished before another critical piece was ready, leaving the site in an inconsistent state for a short window. Think of it like changing the locks on a door before the new keys have arrived the door ends up neither fully open nor properly secured.
Once we identified the root cause, we pushed a corrected version of the update that ensures both pieces always complete in the right order before anything becomes visible to users.
We updated the deployment process so that user-facing parts of the site can only go live after the underlying security layer has been fully confirmed. A failed step now stops the whole update cleanly, with no partial changes reaching the site.
We are applying this same safeguard to all similar updates across our infrastructure to prevent this from happening again. MISSING_TEST < INCOMPLETE_PERSPECTIVE
