Global availability incident: Facebook.
Meta confirmed service disruptions impacting account access, alongside high disruptions reported in Ad Manager and business APIs.
Operational characteristics:
• Sudden spike in user reports (~4:15 PM ET)
• Global impact footprint
• No immediate root cause transparency
• Service restoration within ~2 hours
Availability is a security pillar — and outages expose:
- Centralization risk
- Cascading dependency exposure
- Business continuity gaps
- API reliance vulnerabilities

For security and reliability engineers:
Are social platforms integrated into your risk register and DR modeling?
