Major IT outage affecting banks, airlines, media outlets across the world
There are reports of IT outages affecting major institutions in Australia and internationally.
All our servers and company laptops went down at pretty much the same time. Laptops have been bootlooping to blue screen of death. It's all very exciting, personally, as someone not responsible for fixing it.
Apparently caused by a bad CrowdStrike update.
Edit: now being told we (who almost all generally work from home) need to come into the office Monday as they can only apply the fix in-person. We'll see if that changes over the weekend...
You're viewing a single thread.
It's Russia, or Iran or China or even our "ally" Saudi Arabia. So really, it's time to reset the clock to pre 1989. Cut Russia and China off completely, no investment, no internet, no students no tourist nothing. These people mean and are continually doing us harm and we still plod along and some unscrupulous types become agents for personal profit. Enough.
It was a bad update...
Let's ignore that it was an American company taking down EVERYONE'S stuff, I guess
I mean, I’m not completely against that… but Crowdstrike is an American company. Did you comment on the wrong post?
