- A major Microsoft outage has meant businesses worldwide cannot operate, with numerous flights grounded and banking apps down.
So, what actually caused it?
#Microsoft #MicrosoftOutage #Tech
This global internet outage is insane! All airlines grounded and i was stock the airport and even banks, media, and offices from the U.S. to Australia. How can CrowdStrike have such a monopoly that could help restore such a massive amount of tech?
It's pretty concerning. If they can fix this, what other control do they have over our infrastructure? or are we truly in the matrix?
Right? It makes you think about the stability of our systems. But hey, I barely spend time online. When I checked my portfolio with Desiree Ruth Hoffman, we were still in the greens. That’s been the case for 16 months straight!
Wow, really? I've seen the name Desiree Ruth Hoffman before but can't figure out where.
Probably from her forecast on Nvidia before the pump. But how are you in the greens with all the fluctuations due to the election and everything else? Can you share her strategy?
Honestly, just schedule a call with her. She has vast knowledge in finance and really knows how to navigate these times. I handed over my portfolio to her so I can focus on my family. These days, things just get scarier and scarier.
And they are constantly pushing for a cashless society? Yeah, good one!
Oh thank Godzilla other people can connect these dots easy AF now
Great video.
*I was a process control engineer (just retired 2/21/24) I would always stress test my projects just to make sure it would work under all conditions.*
Also depending on the government.
*But I found away of earning more income despite my Retirement. $67k weekly returns has been life changing, after so much struggles.*
wow this awesome 👏 I'm 37 and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how do I make such weekly??
@@babytruca02Maria Angelina Alexander I really appreciate her efforts and transparency.
I remember giving her my first savings $20000 and she opened a brokerage account for me it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.
My outlook on money changed when I realized someone making $200K can retire broke & someone making $80K can retire a millionaire. With the current market movement.
You're correct!! I make a lot of money without relying on the government.
Investing in stocks and digital currencies is beneficial at this moment.
Cashless society ? Hell no !
Cahsless is crime / full blown commie. Why pay tax when none is secure?
very good point!
@@AleksandarIvanov69 Hence they devalue cash and pension funds. Illegal benefits going around... scummy no product product as service cloud freakshow.

Finally.
no way. this just a minor technicality.
Yes
Hope it's smarter than this guy.
Oh, please. The software update wasn't tested fully before release, and that's due to CrowdStrike's incompetence.
100%
And he says be nice to the it guy 😅
@@forbidden-cyrillic-handle or its the diversity and inclusion rather than real IT people?
You’re implying as if Microsoft ever tested their updates? Keep updating windows and you keep running into problems due to these incessant updates
@@forbidden-cyrillic-handleeither way they know what they signed up for and that’s no excuse to to not give it your all to keep maintenance at bay
Crowdstrike has not followed good IT practice by not deploying a phased or staggered update. This is all by design....
This is CrowdStrike, not Microsoft. CrowdStrike runs a new Generative AI Based cybersecurity system called Falcon. This is the first Global incident of how AI can and will completely control us.
AI identified windows to be a big 😅
So you’re saying buy the MSFT dip ? Already got my buy orders in
yeah but because windows has such a bad history with security and it's still prevalent on desktops for companies, this and other services are pitched as a good idea to install and use. if it wasn't this it could be microsoft sso or any other thing running on azure or aws or somewhere else
M$ choice... to rely on this...
Owned by Thales - military company
Did they try turning it off and on again?
Lol 😂
Maybe 😂
Crowdstrike is the kind of bloated monolithic software that is a magnet for BSODs. On Linux, software like this is split into multiple dependencies and packages that are installed separately, but all at once. Linux should be the operating system for government and enterprise.
Yeah, problem. Crowdstrike is also taking down Linux installations.
According to the Crowdstrike community Github, there are three kernel modules. Two are "licenced" GPL BUT HAVE NO SOURCES. The third one is licenced "Proprietary".
So it looks like their development process for kernel modules ain't following the typical Kernel Maintainer procedures.
So I'd love to see Crowdstrike taken to court (say in Germany where the GPL has been upheld in court). Then again, I'd like to see Microsoft get trashed in court too.
@troffle The difference is, this update doesn't automatically push to your machine on Linux without your permission or knowledge.
@@Thegbear You sure about that? I don't know. Where I worked, there was a central controller for Crowdstrike updates and I thought they treated Linux Crowdstrike identically to Windows. The INITIAL INSTALL had to be done manually because we didn't manage Linux installs, but once the install was in you were at Crowdstrike's mercy.
@troffle Ahh yep didn't think about that. Though, you should definitely be manually rolling your updates out, rather than letting them be automated by a controller, entirely because of this scenario.
It is for armies and anything serious.
Crowdstrike is dead now. They will have to pay compensation. It will be in billions.
What compensation? Not in the states. We’re dealing with it now. It’s not just physical machines.. right now we’re dealing with a cluster of VM’s.
@@JimAllen-Persona After a Major Incident like this, Companies \ Business Units penalize MS Azure for down time.
Hence in return will effect on crowd strike. He might meant that. 🤷♂
The expert is not very expert.... only systems that run CrowdStrike Falcon were affected. There are plenty of MicroSoft systems that don't run CrowdStrike Falcon and so were unaffected. Also, there are many non MicroSoft systems out there - which were not affected. Thus, we are not reliant on one system. However, that said, there does appear to be many systems running CrowdStrike Falcon... my company has only recently moved over to it - we used to have Kaspersky but, well, you know....
That doesn't explain the 365 apps crashing?
@@VigyyyRelated effect on 365 servers according to MS. Who also reported 365 should be back up.
If I run a company... I will run my company of 50% with Kaspersky and 50% with Crowdstrike.
@@Vigyyy I'm thinking MS are also using it on 365 and as a result those services lost server capacity.
Its OK guys. Just put all your faith in these systems and all of your personal data online. Nothing can go wrong.
Sadly, there's no way around it...
Unless otherwise?
@TÜRK_ALP
If these companies were actually held accountable instead of having their liability limited by their lapdog politicians, then things might change.
@@TÜRK_ALP
You don’t want what they got.
@-astrangerontheinternet6687 what do you mean? I'm lost...
@@TÜRK_ALP excuse me.
There’s no way around it, unless you don’t want what they got.
If they’ve got nothing you want, they can’t manipulate you. That’s all I mean to say.
I read half an article and can explain it better than their expert. This crowstrike antivirus installs a driver on the machine so that it has kernel level privilages. This driver got updated to a faulty one. Unlike regular applications which if they crash it's only themselves that suffer, drivers that crash take down the whole operating system. To fix the issue you need to boot to safemode where only the essential drivers load, and delete the problematic driver file
Why does Windows not automatically restart in safemode after a blue screen ?
Best explanation I found so far, 🤌 thank you
Best comment on here. Nicely explained, to the poster below. A Operating system just can't automatically restart without manual override (from the operator) to safemode. You have other options such as debugging, driver enforcement, configurations of anti malware systems etc that are options. Windows is no designed to do that as its a dangerous to the OS. OP sounds like a IT pro so if im wrong he can give a definitive answer. Great question though.
@@AlexandrosFotiadis i think windows will enter automatic repair & recovery mode if it fails to boot 3 times in a row. I think from there you also have the ability to delete the faulty driver
As an IT professional, I believe that using Microsoft services in a serious company is a significant mistake. All services should be installed on-site, and all databases and software should be designed to run exclusively on the Linux operating system. No third-party services or software should be involved.
@@zlackbiro that's what I've been saying for years (and doing in my own business) but Ive learned that because it requires actual thought, most people won't do it.
Dude’s there nervously smiling while “explaining” the world literally crashing 😂
Good thing more of the world runs on Linux than windows

Haha this!
stop it, I'm telling you now from my Devuan Linux box, Linuxes running Crowdstrike are also getting hit. Look it up.
not vaniclla arch user. but endeavour OS instead 🤝
Yea instead my Arch system just freezes when it has a Kernel panic (only happened once in 10 years tho)
lots of issues
"Now been dubbed" as an IT professional I find this hilarious😅
Not funny!!!
@@myunknownland9272 lol
What, strikes me is the light-hearted mood...actually, that is encouraging....
Might want to change the title before Microsoft sues for slander and defamation !
Truth is an absolute defense to defamation.
I am a Systems Engineer and I know how important it is to TEST software before release. Did CrowdStrike test this software before they released it on the WORLD? NO, and now the WORLD is testing the software for them!
So you discovered the BSOD after what... 40 years?
Ridiculous to claim that sometimes we make a mistake and laugh. Test fixes before you roll out live and enable roll back. Just very poor engineering practices. We could deal with this stuff in the 70s and 80s for crying out loud.
That dude isn't actually from Crowdstrike. He's just an IT expert. But also there have been plenty of major IT failures since computers were introduced. It just so happens this one is disasterous because of how interconnected our major systems are now. It was a cybersecurity system that went down. It protects major systems from data breaches, cyber attacks etc. In the past, a lot of it wasn't necessary, or it was a major problem. I'm a gen z (or more a zillenial) and I remember when computer viruses were a huge problem. We had such a bad virus that we had to reinstall Windows. Systems have become a lot more sophisticated, which comes with risks when something like this happens.
Crowdstrike will be in a lot of hot water so it's not like they're going to get off scott-free.
Agreed this smells like poor release and change practice
CI/CD and Agile is working in full potential 🤣
I got a feeling that Apple stock go up and the Microsoft stock would go down
Apple doesn't do servers. Linux is king in the server space.

@@jasonwalton3013 Newton agree's
@@Jazztache as it should be, like hell a microsoft server would be any more reliable than a rat pressing buttons on said server.
They turned SKYNET on they did didn’t they!!??
Well lets get ready for judgement day
in times gone by we tested things every which way before going live - by the 1990's companies were starting to look for quick fixes and fast results - it became the norm to release knowing full well testing had not been comprehensive and bugs were in existence (just think of the post office and fujitsu with the horizon scandal) - and the concept of documenting systems had started to disappear long before that - many companies had no documentation at all, let alone not knowing they had bugs in their paid for systems...............
And in times gone by things still went wrong and had to be rolled back and errors or oversights fixed. When dealing with millions of lines of code even with automated testing, things can get missed. I mean just look over the comments and see how much bad speeling there is because people typed in two letters instead of 1 or typed a d instead of an s now think what could happen if some small sub section gets missed or wrongly called... Global outage
There needs to be more competition in this space.
This raises more questions for me than it actually answers. Most servers are on unix or linux system, how can an update on Microsoft effect them? Even if some are on microsoft servers, why is it so wide spread?
How is it that this software update wasnt thoroughly tested beforehand? Seems like incompetence in overdrive.
How is it possible that we all rely on one system? Monopoly.
Monopoly? you mean capitalism, the alternative is 1000% better and for free... still they are indoctrinated at the educational level to get used for windows systems.
Yes the universities are here the problem, not being professional.
I don't think these many questions are to be answered by Ben
What happens if internet is down worldwide
We don’t wanna know
@@clexxy9719 thank you
Australian New channels are fun to watch,... you guys are smiling all the time...that's really good, where others in (US and elsewhere) are cribbing about even a pindrop...keep it up
This is why you still need to self-host and on-site services. Cannot just rely everything on Microsoft.
Govs and enterprises should just move to unix systems. Ive managed unix systems that have been up and running longer than teenagers Ive met. Windows needs reboots and cold patches, what a pain. Unix is real reliability. Windows cant even handle file names longer than 260 letters. Folders named aux or tmp. Or open 2 Office documents of the same name from different folders. Why.
are unix or linux 100$ reliable and perfect systems? absolutely free of any bug and are they free of fails with warantee of security and impossible to fail or crash?
To be fair, Linux running Crowdstrike is also apparently affected. Three kernel modules. Two are licenced GPL but HAVE NO SOURCES. The third one is proprietary.
some companies still are using unix proper aix and maybe even solaris but most of the internet backend is already running on linux servers or vms for backend services. even on microsofts own aws linux instances out number windows server itself. using windows server for anything is a bad idea indeed but this is simply over reliances on cloud services and is a client / desktop problem since it's security related. windows for desktop is still prevalent and that is the problem here. it's likely worse if they were using windows server instances though

Well, just goes show you what can happen, it does not take much to take down the internet, its good to have a break.
A break is one thing, but this could disrupt emergency services, medical services, banking, and more.
I know certain airlines are grounded. Thus is a mess.

It was bound to happen eventually, Windows OS running on so many different devices/computers and systems, compatibility is wide and a range of issues can occur. Cash isn’t king when the cash register or ATM isn’t working, the reliance on systems like these shows how easy it is for society to crash if we aren’t prepared.
*Stop doing business with MSFT*
Perhaps there is an update to global government tech centers?
Monopolies and profit control over a market did this
Quality assurance is not their thing! It's incomprehensible to me that this can happen again and again!
Maybe switch to linux now? 😁
Mac OS users are lucky

This is not a 'Microsoft Outage'. Of course Windows computers crashed, but it was caused by the over smart antivirus tool called Crowdstrike Falcon Sensor, installed in many computers around the world. There is a workaround provided by CrowdStrike, which can be done by any any IT admin guys quite easily. Get it done and move on!
And dhis is the problem of a MONOPOLY.
Exactly
A monopoly has no competition. Crowdstrike it’s just one of many security groups out there, but it is the one that is most common very common as this shows. That is not the definition of a monopoly. Don’t use words you don’t understand.
In the present time, Microsoft does all of its maintenance and updates to their windows operating system via Internet. This is an automatic form of updating the system. The last updates just were sent worldwide and made all the computers crash. It’s Microsoft fault nobody else’s.
CrowdStrike is the cause, not MS
Always carry cash with you.
I just went and learned there is to learn about crowdstrike. Its a AI generated threat security integrated with Microsoft. Their latest security updates called “falcon sensor” which monitors and prevents hacking from taking place is whats creating these shut downs and issues. It’s an automatic AI generated updates that went wrong. Currently they have switched it off to manually which really should’ve been in the first place. The idea of Crowdstrike is that the AI is live and can create live automatic updates to further enhance security, however, this one went south. A really bad one!
All the Bitcoins are lost now 😂😂😂
AI has become sentient
Now they have to deal with what their clients have to deal with in our world with updates with no support
Notice how this happened right after MS fired its entire DEI staff. Funny how it's just the latest of several companies having strangely similar problems.
Its Friday morning here in US. Great start with this clip! I know the day is going to be tough.
So this doesn’t affect Apple users
It does if you’re running your Mac with windows or running apps from aws or azure and have Crowdstrike, the last one being the actual problem!
for kids and little children playing with dolls this problem does not affect.
Its for enterprises. I don't think Apple even does that.

The more you depend on tech the more under control you are .
You mean the more you rely on services, not tech.
@@notcorrect services are tech .
Dependency on Microsoft caused this problem. Bloatware and bad Microsoft updates are the norm for Microsoft and should be expected.

That's why you should never choose Windows for critical services.

this is why none of our information should be online.. if banks had files for there clients then banks can still operate...

Wow! Those airquotes were scary
My God, such a lovely bunch of reports.
Perfect example how misguided people are.
The largest global IT outage was not caused by a cyber attack, but rather by a cyber attack prevention tool🤣🤣
But if that bug is on my pc how will they get rid of it remotely 🤷♂️🙈
crowdstrike ruined everything
I have an idea. Let's go completely digital. Technology never fails. Why are people still using Microsoft?
In UK the only way to pay is cash, big big mess
Who the F is Crowdstrike ? 🤷♀️
Why it has all this access power?! 🤷♀️ Blame Microsoft 🤏
Solution: Use Linux. Simple. Use cash. Simple. But people just complain, and don't actually have the time for things like these, they are too busy posing their perfect lives on the internet.
So thank God, I still have my windows 10 not connected to any update 😶
For a while I entirely forgot the outrage after seeing the female anchor 🤡🗿
He handled it really well.
And they wonder why nobody updates Windows
How on earth social media never effected 😅
I believe the IT engineers and/or scientists may test the CrowStrike/Falcon in the Lab and Test network where the AI is being trained with limited Data Collection, Machine Learning Models, Continuous Learning, Threat Intelligence, Behaviour Analysis and Automated Response. Unfortunately when CrowStrike/Falcon is deployed to the public network where all AI data sets are not the same like in the Lab and Test network. And the CrowStrike/Falcon is being trained to shutdown all computer systems.
Windows: Barely works yet keeps giving making our lives a living hell
The day after Microsoft announced they removed the DEI department, they get a "botched software update"? Curious 🤔
It’s all due to cloud and it is so easy for hackers to deploy one hacking code and stop whole servers..
