Microsoft Outage: What Caused The Biggest Technical Issue in CrowdStrike Services?

Microsoft Outage: Microsoft systems, applications, and services experienced a global outage due to a technical issue, bringing everything to a halt. A blue screen of death error disrupted major businesses, banking, flight services, and the technical operation of Microsoft-based systems and services. Microsoft system users were facing a blue screen that kept flashing up, and the operating system refused to boot up. Now the main question arises: What went downhill? 

Microsft Outage Reason

According to Microsoft’s Service Health Status Update, the initial reason for this problem is a small change in the configuration of the Azure Backend Workload which caused a problem between storage and computer resources, leading to a connectivity failure. The company stated that this problem affected the Microsoft 365 services. Microsoft relies on CrowdStrike, a cybersecurity firm that provides real-time cyber intrusion monitoring for Microsoft applications and services.
