What you need to know

  • Microsoft services have been impacted by a global outage, reportedly caused by bugs affecting Crowdstrike.
  • Crowdstrike has posted that the issue has been identified and isolated, and a fix has been deployed but many services need to restart and are stuck in a boot loop.
  • Azure has been effected along with Microsoft 365 apps. Microsoft's 'fix' for this instructs users to restart multiple times, "as many as 15," to restore service.
