Azure is MS's cloud computing. As long as you weren't using MS OneDrive, or 365 Office, or something else that relied on MS cloud, you're good.
Actually it's due to whether your company uses CrowdStrike or not.
Supposedly, one of the fixes (aside from rebooting and hoping it grabs the update fire) is to delete a single file in the CrowdStrike directory after booting into safe mode.
I just spent the morning doing this with my help desk team, although we just do it via command prompt at the recovery screen. We've had a 100% success rate so far at 93 devices and counting. I'm glad our organization practices read only Friday, at least.
Tbh, I would then also not update anything on Thursdays (which does maybe do overnight procedures) since it may be breaking over night then, leaving you just little time to fix before the weekend :D
This kinda can be extended up until Monday, I know, but, at least in Germany, on Fridays people go home way sooner than other days.
