Description:
Mandiant experienced a service outage for a duration of 1 hour and 14 minutes, beginning at 14:24 US/Pacific on Monday, 28 October 2024, during which the users of mandiant.com were inadvertently redirected to mandiant.exceedlms.com.

Google engineers were alerted to the incident from our internal monitoring alerts at 14:29 US/Pacific on Monday, 28 October 2024 and immediately started an investigation. Once the nature and scope of the incident was identified, Google engineers rolled back the change to remove the incorrect redirect.
