CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz reported that more than 97% of Windows sensors are now back online after a global outage.
CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz announced that over 97% of Windows sensors are now back online following a global outage caused by a software update from the cybersecurity firm.
The incident, which began nearly a week ago, significantly impacted the functionality of CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform sensor, a crucial security tool for protecting devices from cyber threats.
The outage was triggered by a fault in the advanced platform of the Falcon sensor, leading to widespread system crashes on computers running Microsoft’s Windows operating system. Affected devices displayed the notorious “blue screen of death,” causing severe disruptions across various sectors.
Microsoft reported that approximately 8.5 million Windows devices were impacted by the outage. The disruption had far-reaching consequences, including grounded flights, interrupted broadcasting services, and halted access to essential services such as healthcare and banking.
In response to the crisis, CrowdStrike implemented several measures to restore normalcy. George Kurtz highlighted the development of automatic recovery techniques as a crucial part of the recovery process.
Additionally, the company mobilized all available resources to assist customers in overcoming the outage’s effects.
“Our recovery efforts have been enhanced thanks to the development of automatic recovery techniques and by mobilizing all our resources to support our customers,” Kurtz stated in a LinkedIn post.
