8.5 million Windows devices affected by software problem

The company's statement recalled that on July 18, CrowdStrike, an independent cybersecurity company, released a software update that first affected information technology systems worldwide.

The statement said that while this was not a Microsoft incident, it had impacted the company's ecosystem and that the company had maintained constant communication with its customers, CrowdStrike and third-party developers since the incident began to gather information and expedite resolutions.

The statement said that while software updates occasionally cause problems, serious incidents such as CrowdStrike are rare, adding: “We currently estimate that the CrowdStrike update affects 8.5 million Windows devices, or less than one percent of all Windows machines.” Expressions were used.

The statement noted that while the percentage is small, the wide-ranging economic and social impact reflects the use of CrowdStrike by organizations that provide many critical services, and that this incident reveals the interconnectedness of the broad ecosystem of global cloud providers, software platforms, security and other software vendors and customers.

The global software issue that affected many industries due to the disconnect between the update of CrowdStrike, which provides cybersecurity services for Microsoft, and the Microsoft operating system, had a negative impact on life in many parts of the world yesterday.
