So we want to complement CISA’s efforts with regulatory efforts."

Netflix OCA Contact
by Mark Spring 02 Dec '24

02 Dec '24

I'm looking for somebody at Netflix that can help me resolve an issue with their ticketing system. A couple of years ago, they told us that we did not have enough traffic to get an OCA but they would continue to monitor it. I tried to check in with them again and it just auto-closes the ticket saying that one is open. I tried to reply to the old ticket but I haven't gotten a response for a couple weeks. I have no doubt they are busy but I'm trying to make sure I'm not stuck in a folder filed away somewhere. I had somebody that I thought might be able to resolve it from the inside but I haven't heard back on that either. Please contact me directly if you can help!
