IT: UC ANR website performance issues

ANR Community,

As you are all aware, there have been recent performance issues with ANR's website. The performance issues are due to an increased level of bot activity. These bots are automated programs that attempt to access our servers, causing a strain on our resources and impacting the user experience. It is important to note that these bots have not infiltrated our network, and we have not experienced any security breaches or unauthorized access.

This rise in bot activity is not isolated to our organization. Many higher education entities are also encountering similar challenges. Our IT team is actively working on implementing a solution to prevent the bots from reaching our servers.

We will keep you updated on the progress of our efforts to combat the bot activity and restore stability to ANR's website. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our IT support team at help@ucanr.edu.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we work to address this issue.

UC ANR Chief Information Officer
