A major IT outage, which has today affected many banks, media outlets, airlines, the NHS and other major institutions, has led to some disruption in logistics today.
Flights have been grounded at some international airports, some airlines have had to stop flying altogether, and there are also reports of issues at ocean freight ports.
The issue, which is believed to be linked to a cyber security update, is affecting cloud services and has caused outages with some logistics software providers.
Microsoft says it is taking “mitigation actions” and there is currently no information as to when the problem may be resolved.
Therefore, some services may be disrupted today and perhaps in the days to come. The team at Freedom are busy gathering information and will provide an update to any customers affected by this issue in due course.
