Microsoft outage: Govt asks firms to block these 25 ‘dangerous URLs’

Earlier this month, a flawed software update by CrowdStrike affected 8.5 million Windows machines globally, disrupting crucial services like airlines, banks, and hospitals. Subsequent patches by Microsoft and CrowdStrike resolved the issue, but not before hackers exploited the outage. India’s CERT-In warned companies of phishing campaigns and malware related to this incident, sharing 25 URLs to block.
