Microsoft Outlook is down across the Americas, with 65,000+ outage reports on Downdetector. Microsoft says the problem could hit users in any region.

America's businesses and government run on these systems. Reliability isn't optional.

We're investigating reports of users experiencing issues accessing Exchange Online mailboxes through multiple connection methods in the Americas. More details can be found in the Microsoft 365 admin center under EX1550543.

@Microsoft @msexcel 🚨𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄: Nearly a day later, Microsoft says email is “approaching normal levels,” but warns of “intermittent access issues or delayed email delivery.”

Offices, schools and government staff lost a workday of reliable email.

Still no all-clear.

@Microsoft @msexcel 🚨𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄: Microsoft is walking it back.

An hour ago it said some email servers were back and "stable." Now it admits those servers can crash again as soon as people start using them. 😳

The issue remains unresolved, and offices & schools are still awaiting the all-clear‼️

[Office of Strategic Services @OSS_DOW]

Built by some of WWII’s most visionary minds, the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) carried American resolve into the hardest places and against the most determined enemies. It embodied the determination of Americans who believed they could achieve the impossible.

Today, after 81 years, the OSS returns.

Our operators deserve a voice equal to the burden placed upon their shoulders. @ASWAndersonSOF advocated for a Secretariat for Special Operations that operates in both name and function, setting the pace, driving coordination, and ensuring SOF has the resources needed.  

This redesignation strengthens SOF representation within @DeptofWar and reaffirms America’s commitment to the forces entrusted with the Nation’s most demanding missions.

Big WIN against cybercriminals. 💪

The @FBI and international partners just dismantled Gootloader, malware that infected 25,000+ computers since 2018 and fueled ransomware attacks on at least 44 U.S. victims, costing millions.

100+ servers cleaned. Domains seized. ⬇️

[FBI Cyber Branch @FBICyberBranch]

Today, as part of Operation Endgame, the FBI and our partners announced the disruption of the malware and botnet known as Gootloader. Since 2018, Gootloader malware infected more than 25,000 computers worldwide and was used in ransomware attacks against at least 44 U.S.-based victims, resulting in millions of dollars in losses.

As part of the coordinated international operation, @FBIDenver and partners removed the Gootloader malware from over 100 computer servers and seized the U.S. domain names used by criminals to deliver and control the malware. Private-sector partner The Shadowserver Foundation assisted with identifying infections, victim notification, and remediation.

💻 “You DON’T have mail.”

@FoxNews: Microsoft's outage knocked out Outlook, Teams and Copilot across the Americas, leaving people “𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐬, 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐀𝐈.”

For corporate America, these are “products we use every single day.”

.@SecKennedy: “For Veterans and families following this announcement, we recognize that all research takes time while the need for care continues, these investments pursue additional options, they do not change anybody’s treatment today. Veterans should consult their Healthcare Providers before making treatment decisions. Any Veteran in Crisis or anyone concerned about a Veteran can call 988 and press 1 to reach the Veterans Crisis Hotline.”

Service members earned more than a PowerPoint on their way out.

@USDOL is turning the transition program into a real pipeline to civilian jobs. ⬇️🇺🇸

[U.S. Department of Labor @USDOL]

.@BrianSikma: “We are making sure that our transition program, that is designed to connect service members with jobs, is not just about checking the box and saying you sat in a room and heard a brief but it is actually a meaningful partnership between @USDOL and the service branches.”
