Services Affected Worldwide Traced To Microsoft And A CrowdStrike Update
An update is reported to have affected Windows operating systems globally, with many systems showing a "Blue Screen of Death" or BSOD on systems worldwide.
WORLDWIDE - The Microsoft service status page says all services are up and running after CrowdStrike issued an update reported to have affected Windows operating systems globally, with many systems showing a "Blue Screen of Death" or BSOD on systems worldwide.
Microsoft says that the systems have been restored and CrowdStrike says they are rolling their update back globally.
Microsoft also said it is "investigating an issue" after companies worldwide began reporting issues with its services.
Thus far, the attack does not look to be the result of a cyberattack, but rather a consequence of an update that had been rolled out on systems worldwide.
