CrowdStrike recently caused a widespread Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) issue on Windows PCs, disrupting various sectors. However, this was not an isolated incident, CrowdStrike affected Linux PCs also.

    Additionally, organizations should approach CrowdStrike updates with caution

    We would if we were able to control their “deployable content”.

      I read on another thread that an admin was emulating a testing environment by blocking CrowdStrike IPs on their firewall for the whole network before each update, with the exception of a couple machines. It’s stupid that he has to do this but hey, his network was unaffected

      Serious question, can you not? There isn’t an option to…like…set a review system first?

        For antivirus definitions? No, and you wouldn’t want to.

          But it sounds like this added files / drivers or something, not just antivirus rules?
