Microsoft communicates that they are experiencing a problem in the Skype network, but it does not confirm or deny the origin of the problem or when the problem will be solved, so we can only wait for the problem to be solved, as always.

For a short time we have seen how Skype has worked again, but it has been for a while, less than an hour, that it has allowed us to receive delayed messages, but officially Microsoft has already said that the application does not work correctly. No one is saved from this Skype connectivity problem and it is affecting other Microsoft utilities, such as Outlook, which we have found does not work, it cannot connect with the different email accounts that we have indexed, which is a pain upside down, since we have to enter several accounts manually.

Microsoft, which has confirmed the connectivity problem, has not specified the affected regions, but it appears to be global, although most of the complaints come from Europe and the United States, where this application is used the most. The company is working on fixing the problem. We must emphasize that this problem originates from yesterday evening and this problem affects all platforms, such as Windows, Mac, Linux and its version for smartphones. Microsoft, which recognizes the problem, does not say what the origin of the problem is and by not reporting the origin or possible origin due to problems in its own servers, everything indicates that they are really suffering a DDoS attack.

We are aware of an incident where users lose app connectivity and are unable to send or receive messages. Some users will not be able to see a black bar indicating that a group call is in progress and will experience delays in the contact list.
