## Updates from Socket
### 2026-08-12 22:02 UTC: monitoring
GitHub is currently experiencing a service disruption that may impact customers attempting to download GitHub-hosted releases, including Socket Firewall.
This is an upstream GitHub issue and does not impact the operation of existing Socket Firewall deployments. Customers attempting new installations, upgrades, or other workflows that require downloading a release from GitHub may experience failures until GitHub restores service.
We are monitoring the incident and will provide updates as GitHub resolves the issue.
