    A faulty system update from Crowdstrike , a major cybersecurity firm, has led to widespread outages and delayed flights, including in Oklahoma.

    According to USA TODAY , Crowdstrike said one of its recent content updates had a defect that impacted Microsoft's Windows Operating System, adding that the incident was "not a security incident or cyberattack."

    "The issue has been identified, isolated and a fix has been deployed," said a statement from Crowdstrike. Microsoft, meanwhile, said "the underlying cause has been fixed," but that residual impacts continue to affect some of its Microsoft 365 apps and services.
