The Tesla and SpaceX CEO questioned the platform's security practices in response to a user query on Saturday.

⚡️Microsoft Users Around the World Report Widespread Outages

Banks, airlines, TV stations and health systems in countries around the world that rely on Microsoft's 365 apps reported widespread outages Friday.

Microsoft IT outage disrupts flights, banks, media outlets, and companies worldwide.

Thousands of flights and train services were cancelled in the U.S. and Europe, and there were disruptions to many other public and retail services.

Wiz Walks Away From $23 Billion Deal with Google, Will Pursue IPO

Wiz has walked away from a $23 billion deal to be bought by Google, in what would have been the search giant’s largest-ever acquisition, telling employees it would pursue an IPO as previously planned.

Rappaport wrote that the company would focus on its next milestones: an initial public offering and $1 billion in annual recurring revenue.

The deal would have nearly doubled the $12 billion valuation of the startup from its most recent round of funding.

Wiz was founded in 2020 and has grown rapidly under Assaf Rappaport, who had been targeting an IPO as recently as May.
