NPR's A Martinez speaks with Andrew Couts of WIRED about a widespread outage of Microsoft products that has disrupted the life and work of thousands of people.
Microsoft says it's making progress this morning in restoring access after a widespread outage of its products affected customers around the world, including here at NPR. Microsoft says it counts 430 million users of its Microsoft 365 services. And for many hours, starting yesterday, users of its email program, Outlook, could not send or receive emails. So let's ask Andrew Couts about this. He's been covering the outage as director of security and investigations at the news outlet WIRED. Andrew, good morning. Thanks for keeping us up to date here.
MARTIN: So what's the latest status of these Microsoft outages?
COUTS: So as of around 7 a.m. Eastern time, services in Europe and North America were starting to come back online. We're seeing some stability in those services. So you're probably going to start to see emails arriving in your inbox and access to your files and other services on Microsoft 365.
MARTIN: OK. So in an update posted on its website this morning, Microsoft said, "we have no evidence of malicious activity," unquote. So what could be to blame?
