Update - We continue to work to resolve the issue affecting Windows devices and servers.
We recommend users of Windows computers try rebooting their device multiple times (as many as 15 times). This has resolved the issues for some users, but not all.
Update - HUIT and School IT departments are working to resolve the issue affecting Windows devices and servers. This is a global issue caused by a faulty update to the CrowdStrike cybersecurity software. CrowdStrike has confirmed that this is not the result of a security incident or cyberattack.
Microsoft is currently recommending that users of Windows computers who are experiencing blue screen error messages or are unable to access their device can try rebooting multiple times (as many as 15 times) which has resolved the issues for some users, but not all.
Identified - HUIT has confirmed that the issue affecting Windows devices and servers is a global issue caused by an update from Crowdstrike. Windows users are experiencing blue screen error messages, unexpected reboots of their devices, and an inability to access or use their systems. Due to the widespread impact of this issue, we expect several departments across Harvard will experience disruptions to work. We are actively working with Crowdstrike and other vendors to resolve.
