2:01 pm
. i'm feel welcome to the program a technical, advantageous disrupting companies around the world, from airlines to broadcast as and banks. the us initially grounded all of its flights world wide delays at apple. it's including button on amsterdam ship all in the u. k. the london stock exchange was temporarily affected in 2 hospitals in germany at the cancel non emergency operations. the problem is being linked to the cyber security from crowd strike on the microsoft windows operating system. so let's get more from kate ferguson from dw business a welcome, kate. what more do we know? well, we know that this is just happened around the world that had happened across different sectors, from aviation to media and banking. we know that millions of people were affected by this flights were done broad costs or is like sky news and the u. k. abc, australia, they went offline for some time. as he mentioned health care affected to here in germany. some hospitals canceled elective surgery and the u. k. doctors are unable
2:02 pm
to book appointments right now, trays not running their either the london stock exchange offline for some time as well. now you mentioned that this has all been caused by a firm called pride strike. it is a global, secure, with a cyber security company. and what appears to have happened here is not a full t default from pride strike triggered major disruption it to microsoft 365 services which as we can see, no major infrastructure around the world depends on the chrysler. it has been very foss to say that this is not a cyber attack. so on one level, that of course is quite reassuring. but the fact that this could happen at all is of course the, for the worrying. there's one cipher, a consultant toy hunt posting on x earlier calling this the largest i t, i should in the world i k to folks and from dw business. thank you so much for that . let's give us much to think about and we can join our reports, roland jordan, who is that the above and brandon board guy at ford, where i to systems are starting to come back online. welcome roland of what's going
2:03 pm
on. it's relatively calm. so to be honest, people seem to have understood that these technical i t outages occurred all across the road. so it's not like people are renting about to be, are outputting all the things are not good in berlin and things are falling apart. you know, they know it's not the mistake made by the airport, it's all around the world, so they're relatively calm and relaxed and things get back to normal. like if you please have a look at the schedule, your rights and my left side above me, it says balding check in and all of that, that's right. that's relatively just a few read sign saying cancelled. so most slides on no refuse. however, the outputs are still concerned about people coming here and getting overcrowded because they issued a statement on x harmony to a, to an hour ago. say you can get passages,
2:04 pm
please check in with your outlines website before coming here to see if your flight really takes place today. and if not, do not come to the airport so belinda is still concerned. thanks. lots of roland. roland, joe, didn't i to building a brand new book? apple's daddy's kick i is a professor advisory security law at bremond university of applied sciences. it tells me more about how this company crowd strike is connected to today's outage. yeah, so generally speaking, all this mess concerns to cyber security problem. so firstly, there was a role our office cyber security software from crowds drive, which often analyzes network connections for malicious behavior. it is often also a rolled out in connection with microsoft cloud services. and there was a malicious update of the software and this led to the outage that you currently see a lot of different companies and critical infrastructure as well as part of the 2nd thing is and this is part clear. i would say there are also some server surfaces
2:05 pm
issues from microsoft itself, but where microsoft is currently working on a solution. but regarding this, we do not have any further information at the moment. a malicious updates. that sounds like a cyber attack or explain to us what you mean. yeah, so it's so far as we can see, it's not a cyber attack yet. so a cyber attack would mean that we have any kind of malicious actor coming from outside of the company. and trying to a tech certain systems, but as far as we can see them, this is just an ordinary technical roll out of an update. but this update itself did not work properly. so it does not seem at the moment that we have some kind of external actor packing, any kind of effect, the companies, it's more large. we have a software procedure with that which has been ballistic, malicious and weapons, some faulty them coating issues, possibly inside. okay, and it seems extraordinary,
2:06 pm
but so many companies across the world of being affected by this world. them problem. yeah, definitely. and what we see here is really the worst case and my opinion is that we have seen so far regarding centralization of i t because we are talking here about the clock market. and then we have a lot of software model structures here, which are mostly owned by microsoft services like microsoft, 365, and microsoft specialists. and not only companies worldwide are relying on microsoft products. but also, for example, critical infrastructures such as airports, banking, and finance or sector up to small and medium sized enterprises. and this is just the worst case of worst results that we can see if we just rely on cloud infrastructure without taking care of cyber security. and reliability of these cloud infrastructure, but there's no point of cloud infrastructure is that if something happens, then it switches to service elsewhere and nobody sees a problem. you know,
2:07 pm
of course, this is normally also the case of the market, the marketing argument that we see, because it's also said, well, you have a stronger redundancy in cloth infrastructure. and this is something i mentioned in the beginning of this into a few. so we do not only have this crowd struct issues, we also have some server problems coming directly from microsoft in the united states. and normally we have this kind of redundancy and, but we currently do not see why this technical issue has been happens here. it is also to say when you have cloud issues and you have also an external cyber security company, such as crowd struck, which is taking care of your cyber security. it might be the case that you have this faulty update and then nothing works any more, not just the cloud, but also your accessed the cloud because we have the malicious software installed on the, on the pcs and the cloud itself. lots of lots of hospitals in there for us on our back online. is that because this has been fixed,
2:08 pm
or has it been patched to have? they've been using alternative systems so relatively shortly after this whole incident happened, there was a communication directly coming from crowd struck and also for microsoft on how to deal with this issue. so they rolled up out some, some fixes, they gave some information, press information, also information on the websites. and a lot of companies are currently dealing with that. so fixing this book and rolling back to the state of technology they have before this malicious software has been instilled. but i'm quite sure that there will still be some data losses. so even if everything is back online, we are not talking about the steps use that has been if before that regarding availability of these cloud services. so what do we learn from this or yeah, we should see them that we cannot rely completely to 100 percent on cloud service. i think this is a biggest, less than we can learn that from the incidence that happened today. so in the past
2:09 pm
we have said, cloud services are cheap, they're easy to use. i don't care about my tea service because i have redundancy. i just pay some money and now we see it's not bad. so i'm cloud model structures are definitely a problem that we have in the european union. and people and companies should think about on how to create more redundancy that can also possibly mean to f own some data or premise of storage as for example, or to as a so called multi cloud strategy. that you do not rely only on just one cloud provider, but on several of cloud providers to have more redundancy regarding are cyber security and availability of your i to systems. okay, thanks for guiding us through that. a progressive dentist that kip got from brown university of applied sciences to welcome a lot of us. we have republican presidential candidate donald trump has formerly accepted his nomination and called for unity and his 1st space and surviving an assassination attempt. in his keynote
2:10 pm
speech to the final lights of the republican national convention, the former president shed his personal accounts of the shooting and said he had been saved by the grace of god. he also talked about his campaign goals, but a few details about how he would achieve celebrating donald trump off to officially accepting the nomination as the republican presidential candidate. he tried to sell a message of unity. i'm here to night to lay out a vision for the whole nation to every citizen, whether you're a young or old man or woman, democrat, republican, or independent black or white, asian, or hispanic. i extend to you a hand of loyalty and of friendship. together we will lead america to new heights of great. it is like the world has never seen before. a message that went down well with his follow us. he wants to unite all americans. not just for republicans,
2:11 pm
