A widespread IT outage has disrupted businesses across the globe, affecting banks, air traffic control, and media outlets. The outage is reportedly related to the antivirus software Crowdstrike, and has impacted systems in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
The London Stock Exchange has been forced to suspend trading due to the outage. Banks such as HSBC and Barclays have also reported disruptions to their systems, and air traffic control in several countries has been affected.
The outage comes after Frontier Airlines briefly grounded flights on Thursday evening due to a separate IT issue. Microsoft also experienced an outage on Friday, causing the "blue screen of death" on several Windows computers.
