Yesterday’s collapse of information systems worldwide affected the operation of airports, airlines, banks, media and dozens of other businesses around the world.
The global IT meltdown caused by a software update by US cybersecurity firm Crowdstrike has affected nearly 8.5 million Microsoft devices, the tech giant announced today.
“Our estimate so far is that CrowdStrike’s software upgrade affected 8.5 million Windows devices, or less than one percent of all Windows devices,” the company said in a blog post today.
CrowdStrike has helped develop a scalable solution that will help Microsoft’s Azure infrastructure speed up a patch, Microsoft said, adding that the tech giant is working with both Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform to find “more effective approaches”.
