Global incident notice for Microsoft 365 email and tools
The UAB's corporate email service is experiencing disruptions due to a global outage in the Microsoft 365 infrastructure that is affecting users and institutions worldwide.
According to Microsoft, the root of the problem is an overload on the servers responsible for handling secure connections.
This issue causes difficulties with logging in, connection errors, and delays in sending or receiving messages in Outlook (both in the desktop application and the web version), as well as intermittent disruptions in Microsoft Teams (calendars and meetings), SharePoint/OneDrive, and Copilot.
Work is underway to progressively restore the servers and optimise traffic, although the service remains intermittent. This is an issue originating outside the University; therefore, there is no need to change any settings on your devices or repeatedly re-enter your credentials.
The UAB will post any updates through its usual communication channels.
We are sorry for any inconveniences this may have caused the members of our community.
