事件经过
8月7日，微软将达美航空从严重的全球网络中断中恢复的困难归咎于其过时的 IT 基础设施。这场中断始于网络安全公司 CrowdStrike 的一次软件更新，导致达美航空取消了超过 6000 个航班，使数十万乘客滞留。
微软的初步调查显示，达美航空未能将其 IT 系统现代化（不同于面临问题较少的其他主要航空公司），是恢复期延长的一个重要因素。达美航空对此强烈否认微软的说法，并强调其在过去几年对 IT 基础设施的大力投资。 另见: Ofcom 揭露英国铁路移动覆盖差距.
达美航空首席执行官埃德·巴斯蒂安批评微软平台是其系统中“最脆弱的”，而微软和 CrowdStrike 则否认指责，坚称他们在危机期间提供了帮助。达美航空的回应包括向 CrowdStrike 和微软寻求赔偿，随着调查和法律行动的持续，事态仍在不断发展。
