You know what pisses me off most, the statements from Crowdstrike saying “we found it quickly, have deployed a fix, and are helping each and every one of out customers come back online”, etc.
Okay.
- If you found it so quickly why wasn’t it flagged before release?
- You haven’t deployed a fix, you’ve withdrawn the faulty update. It’s a real stretch to suggest sending round a KB with instructions on how to manually restore access to every Windows install is somehow a fix for this disaster.
- Really? Are they really helping customers log onto VM after VM to sort this? Zero help here. We all know what the solution is, it’s just ridiculously time consuming and resource intensive because of how monumentally up they’ve f**ked.
Went to bed last night having got everything back into service bar a couple of inaccessible endpoints (we’re lucky in that we don’t use it everywhere), too tired to be angry. This morning I’ve woken up pissed.
