Title: Global IT outage, Windows' BSODs linked to security data function.
Post by: FireOpal on Jul 19, 2024, 04:50 PM
According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the Microsoft issue appears to be linked to Crowdstrike, a U.S.-based cybersecurity provider.

Crowdstrike was reported as saying that it is aware of crashes on Windows related to its new sensor, Falcon, which is used by businesses to gather security data.

Constantly spying on users? 😎
Can even make corporations handicap...

QUOTE

CrowdStrike is an enterprise-grade employee spying app masquerading as a cloud application observability dashboard.

Corporations could buy CrowdStrike to spy on their own employees.

CrowdStrike is dangerous in that they have root access to every device(i.e. endpoint) across thousands of firms.

CrowdStrike could potentially behave as a propaganda arm of the US government by creating "fake hacking stories" which are un-disprovable.They are able to do this due to information asymmetries in society.
