Congress is calling on the CEO of CrowdStrike to testify over the July 19 massive outage that grounded multiple airlines, knocked banks and hospitals offline, and impacted millions around the world. Impacts from the software glitch are still being felt, especially by Delta Air Lines .

Delta saw hundreds more flight cancellations on Monday, July 22, due to its “crew-tracking software” still not working right after CrowdStrike’s disruption.

Republican leaders of the House Homeland Security Committee said they want CEO George Kurtz to explain what exactly went wrong.

So far, it has been revealed a glitched update to CrowdStrike’s security software caused computers powered by Microsoft Windows to crash. Microsoft said on Saturday, July 20, about 8.5 million devices were affected.

House leaders want Kurtz to schedule a hearing by Wednesday, July 24.
