Update
Censys Engineering continues to work toward full resolution. Search functionality remains available across Censys Platform and Censys Search, however search index data is not currently being updated at a normal rate, meaning results may not reflect the most recent data. Collections are also not updating during this time.
Additionally, Data Downloads will be impacted beginning tomorrow morning. No data will be lost — any snapshots missed will be available in the following build. Censys Engineering is actively working to complete the infrastructure changes required to restore normal service and will provide additional updates as they become available.
