Global failure at Microsoft. It affected large companies, airports, banks, television and on and on and on. According to The Verge, the reason is the cybersecurity service provider CrowdStrike. A faulty update renders vulnerable computers and servers unusable. Next is the same “blue screen of death”.
Who got it:
— United Airlines and Delta Airlines have suspended flights due to communication problems, the US Federal Aviation Administration reports. Turkish Airlines also suspended flights due to a “major global disruption.” The Irish airline Ryanair warned customers about possible problems.
— British television channel Sky News said it was unable to broadcast this morning.
— There is chaos in Sydney, Australia. Nothing works at the airport; several companies cannot register passengers for the flight. Same in Germany and Spain.
— In Alaska, people cannot reach emergency services.
— Due to a failure in the Microsoft Azure cloud, at least 130 flights around the world were canceled. Another 200 are delayed.
— Microsoft users claim that everything lags. The Xbox system is up (problems are still in Poland).
