Recently, the world was reminded of just how fragile the internet can be. Two well established cloud services, Cloudflare and Azure Front Door, both had simultaneous outages that caused major global havoc. Major platforms like LinkedIn, Zoom, Canva, DoorDash, and even crypto exchanges such as Coinbase and Kraken were knocked offline due to these inital outages. Even more recently Cloudflare had a secondary outage early Friday morning, December 5th, 2025. The cause of the inital outages? Configuration changes. Not malicious actors attempting to deliver cyberattacks, but instead it came from within each organization. It is a testament to how system updates or even human error can cascade into a massive global downtime event. Due to these outages, organizations potentially lost millions of dollars due to lost transcations, decreased productivity as well as an untold impact to customer trust.
