Global IT Outage: CrowdStrike Update Causes Widespread Disruption & BSOD Issues| Oneindia News
A global IT outage caused by a faulty CrowdStrike software update disrupted businesses worldwide on Friday.
The glitch affected Microsoft Windows users, causing widespread system crashes known as the "Blue Screen of Death." Airlines, banks, and media outlets faced significant disruptions, with some airports resorting to handwritten boarding passes.
CrowdStrike, a major cybersecurity provider serving many Fortune 500 companies, has deployed a fix but warns full recovery may take time.
The incident has raised questions about over-reliance on single software providers and the importance of thorough quality checks before updates are released.
