Alaska Air Group said on Friday it is partnering with Accenture to conduct an audit of its IT systems, after an outage earlier this week grounded its flights across the U.S.
The disruption stemmed from a global outage affecting Microsoft’s Azure platform, which has impacted Alaska Air’s key systems, including its websites.
