On BBC news a few minutes ago, an expert did describe the problem as affecting Microsoft Azure cloud systems as well as Windows systems running Crowdstrike due to an "update gone wrong".
- cromka 2y agoWell, in BBC’s live coverage, just minutes ago, their technology editor said: “ There have been reports suggesting that a cybersecurity company called Crowdstrike, which produces antivirus software, issued a software update that has gone horribly wrong and is bricking Windows devices - prompting the so-called "blue screen of death" on PCs. Now, whether these two issues are the same thing, or whether it's a perfect storm of two big things happening simultaneously - I don't yet know. It certainly sounds like it's going to be causing a lot of havoc.” What two issues? Two major independent outages? This is seriously bad and purely speculative.
