It’s a great morning for those planning to travel this weekend, as the world is going a little crazier due to a serious computer problem affecting Spanish airports. However, It is not just AENA that is affected, it is literally the entire world.

Banks, airlines, TV networks, supermarkets and many other companies worldwide. Australia was the first to sound the alarm Thousands of computer equipment in different sectors started giving blue screens death (the dreaded BSOD). The problems spread early Friday morning as European-based companies began their workday.
British channel Sky News He couldn’t publish his news for hours Ryanair, one of Europe’s largest airlines, also says it has experienced an “unrelated” computer issue that has affected or even cancelled flights. And like rivals Vueling, it confirms this on its own website.
In the United States, the same AFA or Federal Aviation Administration helps airlines such as Delta, United and American Airlines due to communication problems. Berlin airport also warns of travel delays due to “technical issues”Even many 911 emergency call centers in Alaska were affected by the problems. Due to the disruptions, boarding passes were resorted to being handwritten.
Where is the reason for everything? What is causing so much global chaos? The answer is Crowdstrike, a cybersecurity provider. It is used by many companies worldwide to manage the security of their Windows computers and servers. A buggy CrowdStrike update is taking computers offline and the affected servers are forced into a recovery boot loop so that the machines are unable to boot properly.
BSOD prevents computer from restartingThen it gets stuck, the service fails to start and the infrastructure, whether it is a bank, a TV channel or an airport, is affected and becomes inoperable.
Can this be solved? Our colleagues at Xataka learned that there is already a solution to the Crowdstrike incident, but although it is workable, it is not very functional at the moment because it has to be implemented team by team. And we are talking about literally millions and millions of computers affected needs to be repaired one by one.
Brody Nisbet, Crowstrike Security Manager, Recommends rebooting systems into Windows safe mode by deleting the file ‘C-00000291*.sys’‘. The chaos appears to be passing now and Aena has confirmed that it has recovered some of its systems but the overall outage remains ongoing and will continue to affect thousands of services until a full recovery is made.
