CROWDSTRIKE did not have a good day on July 19. During a routine software update, the file that the cybersecurity firm issued triggered a logic error that prohibited Windows machines from rebooting. Microsoft estimates that around 8.5 million computers may have been affected by the event.

This created a tsunami of downstream consequences, as computers that supported numerous industry operations were unable to coordinate and process data.
