MS's motto: "If it ain't broken, update till it is."

Getting the system up and running for November.

All Network Guys Around the World: "See, it's NOT the Network" 😄

Keep depending on a sole company for your needs.

[mauriceanderson]

its odd to deploy a "Security Patch" without Testing the "Security Patch" FIRST

[cayminlast]

"Microsoft Monopoly", consequences of not addressing this issue, corruption and unhinged greed.

If you have the means, ALWAYS carry a reasonable amount of cash 💰.

Glitch…ahh, that’s what they’re calling it these days.

Restart windows on safe mode, uninstall crowdstrike software, restart windows, or restart windows go into troubleshooting restore for past backup before update and stay with older version. Problem fixed till they get everything updated.. no reason to stay like deer in headlights and watch your business burn. This not that hard.

How is that update supposed to to happen when the pcs dont have the opportunity to connect to be able to get it, this will be a bunch of manual labor

[BustedSills]

“Not a cybe attack”…yeah right, got it

[AC-reee]

Glitch it says, get ready folks, soon they will turn out the lights and no one will know when they will turn them back on 😂😂

[Beastlife]

How does a cybersecurity company not be prepared for something they know is going to happen?🤔 Seems a little odd

[Greenpoloboy]

Imagine being the person responsible for bringing down computers around the world. I mean, we all make mistakes I guess

[freespeech]

Mission accomplished: no one can hack crashed computer.

[NoahSpurrier]

You know what’s really funny? Cloudstrike’s web site runs on Linux servers!

[atxmaps]

Glad I’m in Austin where the company is HQ’d. Been on the laptop all morning no issues.

Try to fathom the carnage if CrowdStrike managed the U.S. Secret Service.
