Computer Repair Experts in Phoenix, Arizona. my PC Techs Presents:

In late July, 2024 an estimated 8.5 million computers crashed globally. The outage happened all at once and caused massive chaos throughout virtually every industry including airlines, banks, television stations, and retailers. Due to a lack of trained IT professionals available to some businesses to recover servers and computers that had crashed, many of these critical systems took days or weeks to get back online. The estimated losses from this event are estimated in the billions.

This particular bug was caused by a software glitch in the CrowdStrike security platform, a piece of cybersecurity software designed to protect against viruses and attacks, and highlights two important realities for all modern businesses. First, technology must be diversified throughout the enterprise. Second, companies must spend more to beef up their IT infrastructure, especially in the way of hiring more trained technicians to help manage and maintain computer systems, servers, and virtual machines.
