A week after a faulty update caused a global IT outage that grounded flights and knocked TV stations off-air, the boss of CrowdStrike has revealed nearly all systems are back online.
In a post on LinkedIn, George Kurtz said “over 97%” of systems running its software were back online.
Microsoft previously estimated 8.5 million machines had been disabled by a bug in CrowdStrike’s software.
That figure, and Mr Kurtz’s estimate of the percentage fixed, suggests approximately 250,000 devices remain offline.
The CrowdStrike chief executive thanked the “tireless efforts” of customers and staff as he apologised again for the incident.
