Microsoft has pointed fingers at a 2009 European Union deal as the root cause of a recent CrowdStrike meltdown that impacted millions of Windows systems worldwide. The incident, which resulted in a “blue screen of death” for 8.5 million devices, has caused significant disruptions across commercial operations.
A Microsoft spokesperson claimed that a 2009 agreement with the EU obligated the tech giant to grant external security developers the same level of access to Windows as Microsoft itself. This open-door policy, according to the spokesperson, inadvertently paved the way for critical bugs to emerge, culminating in the CrowdStrike failure.
Jetzt meldet sich in der Causa #Crowdstrike auch #Microsoft mal zu Wort – und gibt der #EU eine #Mitschuld am globalen IT-Debakel wegen eines wettbewerbsrechtlich verankerten #Kernel-Zugangs aus 2009. Schon interessant, dass das jetzt auf einmal auftaucht:https://t.co/xLnzbX3Ysi pic.twitter.com/eolkqytCxq
