Back in November of 2025, Cloudflare experienced a technical outage. Though you may not have heard of Cloudflare before, you have likely visited at least one website that is, to some degree, connected with Cloudflare.

On July 19th, a single error within the files of a CrowdStrike cybersecurity program resulted in millions of Windows devices crashing and unable to operate properly. While it appears that fixes have been put into place to address this error, there are still lessons to be learned from this incident.
