Global Impact of a 1% Windows Outage

In today's digitally interconnected world, even a seemingly small security update can have catastrophic consequences. The recent incident involving a problematic update from CrowdStrike, a well-known cybersecurity solution, highlights this fact. The update affected less than one percent of Windows devices, yet the implications were massive and global.

We will explore why such an outage had a massive impact globally and how Desktop as a Service (DaaS) solutions, including those with a full-service managed option, like Dizzion can ensure faster recovery, with minimal impact to operations.
