well said, we need checks and balances and standards.... !! what if this happened on a system the military used ? Its a little frightening to be honest.
CrowdStrike -- they don't know how to deploy software. When I worked at a company I leave unnamed, we never deployed new revisions on all computers at once. First it went on alpha computers, a few days later on beta computers, and only later on all other, and as soon as you get a dozen of crash reports, you immediately revert to the previous version. Microsoft also blew it. As soon as the new driver causing a crash it should automatically revert to the previous configuration.
Good point...Microsoft is also at fault. They didn't handle the error if it got to a blue screen of death. There's a definite problem on both sides there. Huge vulnerability and loss of time, money, business services, and the list goes on and on...could even resulted in major problems with hospital systems and maybe failed on levels of life-sustaining critical equipment
I just wonder why they rolled out the update on a Thursday. In IT & Cyber sector, we usually roll out updates and patches on Tuesdays so we have a few days before the wknd to resolve issues. #PatchTuesday
Easy to understand, deadlines for rollout were probably too short which means testing before the rollout would have been too short. This won't change and is not just a Crowdstrike issue.
Yet another horror story where inadequate testing or lack thereof has massive impacts. Hopefully, improved testing methods will be taken seriously in the future.
too big to fail is what we started loving, didn't we? until something like this happen, no one ever realize we were standing on one pillar! gotta appreciate the scale in this day and age. i wonder what are the alternatives, if at all!
Only Channel which said what actually Crowstrick is and Second real question if if direct update can be rolled out then what about countries like china using it for back door ? Million dolor question ? I Appreciate @NewsNation for correct vision to present News .... Good Work
That's just me saying, no one else is saying AFAIK, but this is a symptom of the layoffs initiated in 2022, continuing up until today. You have less developers, less QA testers, less management and executives, and someday, somewhere, the consequences are bound to show up. You can't fire one third of you team, and expect it to meet the same deadlines as ever, today's software are hundreds or thousands of times more complex than software in 2004, a pre docker, cloud and kubernetes era.
As a data scientist everything this man said is true. We all have bad code in production at some point, but not purposely. Also part of this issue is due to so many people migrating to the cloud. On prem infrastructure isn't financial viable anymore so I'm guessing the updates were automatically installed on all Microsoft virtual machines.
That doesn't make sense... you wouldn't put, or even be able to put, a kernel level software on a VM, and if you could or did, they'd be able to fix them remotely... these were physically affected machines only.
@@Mr.HondaMoto More likely the machine that hosts your VMs had to be fixed. Wait, so, are you saying MS themselves is running crowdstrike on their cloud services? Or are you subscribed to a third-party providing MS services? None of my stuff broke, so I'm admittedly, not 100% familiar with all the details, all I know is it was CS agent software running on windows machines that broke. A driver component type thing, which is why I doubt it would be on the VMs themselves.
Glitch or attack. At this moment we really don't know what exactly happened but is a GREAT FAILURE. Not just Microsoft or "CrowdStrike" are the culprits the companies that didn't prevented this situation as well.
Why is it not a Microsoft problem? They make the OS and they operate the cloud. Why didn't they test the CRWD rollout? The Pilot testing process is broken.

How could the whole world's computers be brought down by ONE companies software ? We are hugely vulnerable to the bad guys !!!
Because those companies allowed automatic patching / updates on their production and disaster servers without any testing.
Imagine how much in IT we rely on such useless companies
All security vendors are like that in IT incompetence at the peak of
Not close to all. Just those using Falcon. Get it right
No… bad guys r vulnerable to bad guys
concentrated use of single product is a national and international security risk

its hard to believe they just didnt think that far ahead..... about something so simple.....just saying
@@ElementaryWatson-oxo good input. I’m sure it was hacked or something and not an update. False sense of security

45 minutes with IT for my machine…and I’m one of many in the same org…one at a timing it….😢
And..... Vanguard is the largest owner. Surprised?
Keep Auto update off!!!!

Test run on purpose or really a bug 🤔
Is this the reason why I didn’t get paid today ?
Blue screen of death = complete OS reinstall start over. LOL
It doesn't need a reinstall, it merely needs a reboot in safe mode and a delete of the Crowdstrike .SYS file that caused the Blue Screen

Whoever who wrote the code, the update that caused this, screwed up, big time
Nope, it's on the whole company. If a single person's error could do this they have inadequate testing. There should be multiple layers to catch this.
Testing, not troubleshooting. Dumb.
Sabotage

How Microsoft allows a third-party company into its operating system? Unless it is also part of Microsoft.
The devil is in the details .
Strong sell crowstrike
Good luck on trying to buy PUTS, the PUTS price are so jacked high, that a one $300 strike put will cost 3K
Woohoo! All my criminal records & debt got erased. ❤CrowdStrike & Microsoft
So, if Crowdstrike can cripple the world's computers, Dominion can change votes.
They hired DEI engineers?

They were hacked
Nope
