[Regnum] The global outage in Microsoft programs on July 19 affected less than 1% of computers running the Windows operating system, the company reported in a blog post.
It is noted that on July 18, independent cybersecurity company CrowdStrike released an update that began to affect IT systems around the world. The failure led to problems in many areas. Problems were encountered in airlines, banks, hospitals, and media in many countries around the world.
The failure did not affect the operation of computers in Russia.
"The CrowdStrike antivirus update affected 8.5 million Windows devices, or less than 1 percent of all Windows PCs. While this percentage was small, the broad economic and societal impact reflects the use of CrowdStrike by enterprises that support many mission-critical services," Microsoft explained.
As reported by IA Regnum, in many countries around the world on July 19, there were failures in the operation of devices with the Windows system. In the morning, users began to complain about the appearance of the "blue screen of death" on devices with Windows 10. The failure affected many companies and government agencies in Australia, the United States, Turkey, Ireland, India, Great Britain, Japan and other countries.
Restoring all systems to full functionality after a global outage in Windows-based technology could take weeks, the British newspaper Guardian suggested, citing the opinion of experts in the field of digital technology.
Experts believe that similar failures could happen again if various companies do not take care to create proper protection and backup copies of important information.
The massive failure of Windows has shown how important import substitution of foreign software is, the press service of the Ministry of Digital Development noted in its commentary.
