According to AI News, on July 20th, Microsoft's official blog released a statement titled 'Helping Customers Survive CrowdStrike Failure Period'. Microsoft stated that while software updates may occasionally cause disruptions, major events like CrowdStrike do not occur frequently. The company currently estimates that CrowdStrike's updates have affected 8.5 million Windows devices, accounting for less than 1% of all Windows devices. Although the percentage is small, the widespread economic and social impact reflects that businesses are using CrowdStrike to support many critical services.
