According to Crowdstrike, an update to their software caused Microsoft's Windows to crash, resulting in a worldwide internet crisis involving flights, hospitals, and essential services.
Hospitals in Europe had to cancel operations, UK GP practices saw only urgent cases, grocery stores couldn't take payments, and TV networks were down due to the software glitch.
Crowdstrike confirmed the issue stemmed from their software, not a cyberattack, and stated they have deployed a fix to resolve the problem.
The incident affected airlines globally, with American Airlines grounding flights and KLM stating it made flight handling impossible, showing the widespread impact of the software issue.
