Global Microsoft Outage
A massive Microsoft outage lasting over 12 hours has disrupted email, Teams, and other services for millions of users across 74 countries, affecting banks, governments, courts, and major corporations worldwide. Microsoft reported "marginal success" in resolving the issue and confirmed it was not caused by a cybersecurity breach. The disruption has forced governments to switch to alternative methods, delayed business operations, and prompted banks to warn customers of potential scams and phishing attempts.
