When things like this Microsoft outage happen, people immediately start looking for workarounds just to keep things moving, and that means switching to tools and systems that aren't the ones normally used or approved by organisations.

Organisations need to be careful with what people are doing now, when their usual systems are down, and what tools and programs people are using, as that introduces a potential risk. The other concern is what happens when systems come back. 

Organisations should consider having approved back-up systems in place and a level of redundancy to ensure people can switch to alternative systems and programs without risk.
