On July 19, many organizations around the globe—including airlines, banks, and hospitals—experienced outages as Windows machines reportedly got stuck in a boot loop that ultimately resulted in the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD). These disruptions had a common source: an update from CrowdStrike, a managed detection and response (MDR) service used to protect Windows endpoints from attack. Tune in to hear The Internet Report team’s insights on this CrowdStrike update and the ensuing IT outages. We’ll also dive into the separate Azure outage that occurred just hours before, as well as some other recent disruptions.———CHAPTERS:00:00 Intro00:48 CrowdStrike Sensor Update Incident05:40 Azure Outage10:47 Workday Outage12:11 Grammarly Incidents14:36 Outage Trends: By the Numbers16:57 Get in Touch ———For more insights, check out The Internet Report blog: https://www.thousandeyes.com/blog/internet-report-crowdstrike-update-azure-outage?utm_source=transistor&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=na_fy24q4_internetreport_q4fy24ep6_podcast———Want to get in touch?If you have questions, feedback, or guests you would like to see featured on the show, send us a note at [email protected].
