Live: Global IT outage affecting banks, airlines, media outlets across the world
www.abc.net.au
There are reports of IT outages affecting major institutions in Australia and internationally.

All our servers and company laptops went down at pretty much the same time. Laptops have been bootlooping to blue screen of death. It’s all very exciting, personally, as someone not responsible for fixing it.

Apparently caused by a bad CrowdStrike update.

    Nah, it’s fair enough. I’m not trying to start an argument about any of this. But ya gotta talk in terms that the insurance people talk in (because that’s what your c-suite understand it in). If you say DR… and didn’t actually DR… That can cause some auditing problems later. I unfortunately (or fortunately… I dunno) hold the C-suite position in a few companies. DR is a nasty word. Just like “security incident” is a VERY nasty phrase.
