Went on @trtworld over the weekend to provide live commentary on the Crowdstrike global IT outage on the Newshour programme and explain why it isn't an easy fix, as well as why we really should be looking at Microsoft to make changes in order to avoid this happening again. Thanks for the chat Maria Ramos!

Ended up having a busy weekend with the global IT outage!

Had a great chat with Reya El-Salahi and Prof Ilan Kelman on @timesradio on Friday night explaining how the outage occurred and why we, and governments, should really be looking much more closely at Microsoft's part in it.

Single Point of Failure: Global IT Outage Underpins Over-Reliance on Microsoft by Corporates

"What hackers see from events such as yesterday's global IT outage is that corporates the world over are over-reliant on Microsoft systems and suites such as Microsoft 365. To them, this presents a huge opportunity as they now know there is a single point of failure which they can potentially exploit and bring down corporates' systems worldwide."
