(Reuters) - Newcastle United have signed 19-year-old defender Miodrag Pivas from Serbian side Jedinstvo Ub, the Premier League club said on Saturday.

PETALING JAYA: Critical services such as airlines, hospitals, payment gateways and public transportation must be prepared and have a backup plan in the event of a major IT outage, advises an expert.

“They need to be prepared not just for a system crash but also for major disasters like this so they can resume critical functions.The National Cyber Security Agency stressed that “this was not a cyberattack, but it is a significant cybersecurity issue”. The government agency overseeing cybersecurity incidents in Malaysia advised firms to look out for “temporary workarounds to mitigate potential new risks” and announcements and updates from vendors that address the issue.

According to CrowdStrike, the global outage was caused by “a defect found in a single content update” from the company to Windows hosts. “We further recommend organisations ensure they’re communicating with CrowdStrike representatives through official channels,” it said in a statement.
