A software update from cybersecurity company Crowdstrike appears to have inadvertently disrupted IT systems globally.
Banks, airports, TV stations, hotels, and countless other businesses are all facing widespread IT outages, leaving flights grounded and causing widespread disruption, after Windows machines have displayed errors worldwide. In the early hours of Friday, companies in Australia running Microsoft ’s Windows operating system started reporting devices showing Blue Screens of Death .
Engineers from the company posted to the company’s Reddit forum that it has seen “widespread reports of BSODs on Windows hosts” occurring across its software, is working on the problem, and has advised a workaround for impacted systems. The incident, so far, appears to only be impacting devices running Windows and not other operating systems. It is unclear exactly how widespread the issues are and how long they will take to resolve.
