IT Global Outage Reaction - Technology Manager Discusses Crowdstrike (What Is Happening??)

Here are my thoughts on the “global IT outage” being experienced as a result of the Crowdstrike bug affecting Windows computers, causing them to crash and display the Blue Screen of Death.
How did this happen and how did the developers responsible for coding and quality testing this actually get the go ahead to release this to the mass public?

To manually fix you can run the below command in safe mode to remove the problem file.
cd \windows\system32\drivers\crowdstrike
del C-00000291*.sys
shutdown /r

I have been out the corporate IT scene for a while. But when I was working as an admin, we never let ANY patch auto-update. At bare minimal a few techs ran it on their PC first, depending on the effected infrustructure. I am old enough to remember the MS update S&*t fight.

[JohnLamjohnlsl]

as an ex-sys admin that have work with internal deployment
how the hell did everyone surrender deployment control of a ring 0 kernel application
how did this even not flag up as risk by the risk team

The smart thing to have done would be stagger the updates. Always do a rolling update schedule. And also -- let other companies install that first.
Forced updates have always been a problem for THIS reason.
I presume that companies which have forced updates and bitlocker nonsense are the ones that care least about their employees.

I tell you, I would sue the crap out of crowdstrike, they obviously do not take Itil, nor the guidance of many frameworks for large scale deployments. People lost a day of production, this probably is the costliest deployment mistake ever.

[donnieweston]

Haven't seen anything about how many of Crowdstrikes pc went down.

[christopher]

I find it VERY hard to believe that Crowdstrike didn't test this update on a single Windows system prior to deployment.

Love the MacsBugs image in the background… who even remembers using it?? And the optional “developer” buttons you had to install on a Mac case… I miss the days of MacsBugs 😜🤣

This was a trial run in case President Trump get's reelected in November...

My computer is stuck in an infinite reboot loop, preventing me from accessing the command prompt or deleting any files. The repair options never appear, and I've tried all the methods to enter safe mode without success. I've pressed the F keys and repeatedly forced shutdowns with the power button, but nothing works. Despite all my efforts, the computer remains in this constant reboot loop.

kernel app with no validation or error checking? Really?

[NickThunnda]

I was one of the few IT guys who took testing seriously back in the 90s. Management just can't or won't test systems properly. It's boring work, but essential. Shorter attention spans these days?🤔

[Trevorodunne]

Please Don't let Crowdstrike Get away with this Please sue them

[bobtarmac]

Ai righting code. This will only get worse. Can we cease ai?

[SilentKnight]

What they protect, ??? They can't even protect their own.

[cybervigilante]

And all our money is supposed to be tied up in CBDCs. Save some Cash.

[enigmo]

Somebody at Crowdstrike development team didn't do the proper "sandbox" testing enough to catch the null pointer dereference issue. Heads are going to roll...

[thedude]

All the IT managers that allowed their systems to be managed by Crowdstrike shouldn't be working in the industry any more.

[hombrenuevoacts]

Just like the secret service dropping the ball😂😂😂

[yclept]

Testing is a high talent. Somebody unusually talented at testing can usually write thousands of lines of code without any bugs, just from intuiting what to double check as it's written. He has a mind for danger and perverse consequences. Crowdstrike, I am told, forefronts its commitment to DEI. If so, don't expect any unusual talent where it's needed.
