CrowdStrike has admitted to pushing out a foul software program replace, inflicting many Home windows machines working the affected software program to crash. The issue, apparently affecting its Falcon platform, introduced down servers at airways, locked up computer systems at banks, and damage healthcare companies.
“CrowdStrike is actively working with clients impacted by a defect present in a single content material replace for Home windows hosts,” the corporate mentioned Friday in a submit to its weblog titled “Assertion on Home windows Sensor Replace.”
Mac and Linux variations of the software program are unaffected, and the incident was not the results of a cyberattack, it mentioned.
