SEVERAL companies in Singapore have been affected by a global IT outage on Friday (Jul 19) afternoon.

The websites of several companies appeared unable to load, from around 2 pm.
Changi Airport said in response to queries from The Business Times that the check-in process for some airlines is being managed manually due to the outage.

“Changi Airport ground staff are providing assistance to passengers, especially those with impending departure times,” said the airport’s statement.

National carrier Singapore Airlines : C6L -0.7% (SIA) also said in a Facebook post that services at its Ion Orchard centre, as well as its reservation hotines, are experiencing technical difficulties due to the global outage.
“There is currently no impact to SIA flights, which are operating as scheduled,” it said

Media outlets, including SPH Media’s BT and The Straits Times, are also affected.
Singapore Post : S08 0% said on Instagram that it is currently “experiencing technical difficulties due to a widespread IT outage”.

Crowd-sourced outage website Down Detector showed that telcos Singtel and M1, a subsidiary of Keppel, had several reports of services being affected around 2.30 pm.

Microsoft’s cloud-computing platform Azure also had several reports lodged on the outage website at the same time.
BT has reached out to several companies for comment.

Overseas media outlets have reported that the outage appears to be caused by an update from US cybersecurity company CrowdStrike. The Nasdaq-listed firm was down as much as 14 per cent in pre-market trading.

Earlier in the afternoon, Microsoft said it was investigating a cloud services outage that grounded planes and disrupted flight operations in the US.
Airports in major cities including Sydney, Edinburgh and Amsterdam are also affected, with boarding passes at some places being checked manually.
