ABC Canberra Mornings: what next from the IT outage

With the massive IT outage in the rear view mirror, what’s next? Leigh Stark joins ABC to talk tech.

The major IT outage in July 2024 was big enough to affect nearly everyone, not necessarily because we all had computers affected, but because it affected other places. Supermarkets, airports, call centres, and more; if you had the misfortune of needing one of these on July 19 to July 21, you may have been impacted.

So what went wrong, and how can we be prepared if something like this happens again?

Pickr’s Leigh Stark joins ABC Canberra’s George Stynes to talk about what happened and whether you need an extra computer moving forward, among other things.

Check out ABC Canberra Mornings from 01.50 on July 22, 2024 — practically the beginning of the show! — where Pickr’s Leigh Stark joined ABC’s George Stynes to talk next steps from the Crowdstrike outage of 2024.
