Microsoft is experiencing ongoing service outages, with disruptions continuing into Friday morning, according to multiple outlets. The reports describe users and organisations still seeing problems while the company works on restoring services.
Several sources emphasise statements from Microsoft executive vice-president Charles Lamanna, who says the outages do not appear to be the result of a cyber attack. Other coverage focuses more generally on the continuation of the disruptions without adding further detail beyond the restoration effort.
Across the articles, the main differences are the level of emphasis on the company’s position regarding cyber risk. While Evening Standard and The Independent highlight Lamanna’s remarks, other outlets primarily frame the story around the fact that Microsoft outages are still ongoing and services are not fully restored.
