BrightTalk down for maintenance?

[kmjordan]

I've been going through the ISC2 webinars on BrightTalk this week for my year-end CPE push, but yesterday that stopped because this message appeared:

==============

Please be advised that BrightTALK are performing important maintenance at this time.

We will be back very soon.

The BrightTALK Team

==============

We're on day 2 of maintenance now.  Any idea when the site will be available again?  I was planning some binge watching this weekend, but it doesn't look too promising right now....

There message is really not informative except for them being down.

This question is best answered by someone on the management team, they may have more details. 

@mariatirado  Would you be able to assist?

This is the response I got from BrightTALK support when I reached out yesterday using the contact link in the message on the website:

"We apologize for any inconvenience caused. BrightTALK is currently undergoing unscheduled maintenance. At this time, we are unable to provide an estimated time for completion, but we will ensure to keep you updated as soon as possible.

Thanks,

John"

Unscheduled maintenance sounds like some type of system failure or possibility a security incident.

I have not been able to find any additional information, and have received no additional follow up from BrightTALK support. Was actually checking the forum here to see if anyone else had any additional information, as I had stuff lined up to watch as well.

@Kaity 
I was just about to post this news!

I can confirm. Brighttalk is up and I have logged in to a webinar. 

Fingers crossed it stays up through the end of the year for all those who still need CPEs!

Yes Bright Talk was back up as of this AM but had been down since last Friday.  Thanks for checking.
