The outage began Aug. 25, when all EECS Instructional & Research Information Systems, or IRIS, infrastructure was knocked offline.

“We are aware that all IRIS services are currently down. More information will be forthcoming as it becomes available,” wrote campus IT administrator Lars Rohrbach in an outage notice posted that day.

Campus spokesperson Janet Gilmore later told The Daily Californian in an email that campus began “containment efforts” the following day — claiming campus IT then took down “several systems” as part of a “comprehensive security protocol.”

Most details about the incident remain unclear, as campus administration has restricted access to information concerning the outage; even many high-ranking EECS researchers and administrators have been left without answers.

Alongside teaching, these EECS professors and staff conduct some of UC Berkeley’s most advanced research into AI and machine learning, with some projects funded by multimillion-dollar grants from the U.S. military.
