Crowdstrike chaos: What are the lessons from the world's biggest IT failure?
It’s been an extraordinary day of cancelled flights, disrupted businesses, problems for healthcare and TV stations not being able to get on air (ahem).
And all because of an update for Microsoft Windows.
So what caused one of the biggest IT failures ever seen – and what do we know about Crowdstrike, the company which released the update?
Ali Fortescue’s in for Niall to discuss it all with our science and technology editor Tom Clarke and data and forensics correspondent Tom Cheshire.
