Microsoft users worldwide are experiencing a "Blue Screen of Death" (BSOD) issue, causing system crashes and automatic restarts.
Dell Technologies has pointed to a recent CrowdStrike update as a potential cause. CrowdStrike, a cybersecurity firm, has identified a malfunction in its Falcon Sensor that might conflict with Windows systems.
The company is addressing the problem but has not confirmed whether it’s the sole cause of the outage. Microsoft has resolved the Azure disruption, but the incident highlights vulnerabilities in cloud-dependent infrastructure. The BSOD typically signals critical system errors leading to unexpected restarts.
