Reading other comments here, sorry I don't have the link, one crowd strike salesperson threatened to cancel them as a Client, yes you read that right, if the client wasn't easier to work with. So they're bullies or at least that one salesperson in crowd strike is a bully.
Another article talked about crowd strike being required for compliance, people here talking about checkbox compliance. So there's a systemic requirement from perhaps insurers for there to be some kind of comprehensive near real-time updated antivirus solution.
Furthermore, the haste makes waste philosophy seems to not be honored, in my opining mind, by the minds who drive The impacted sectors of our economy. Hospitals, Banks, airlines. This kind of vulnerability should not have been accepted. It's a single point of failure. Even on crowdstrike's website they have this kind of like radar ring hotspot Target kind of graphic, where they show at the very center one single client app .. theirs, as if that one single client is the thing that's going to save us?
This is amazing sales tactics! So, you buddy up with insurance, they create a checkbox and recommend you for a revenue cut! Now you suddenly have millions of customers out of nowhere and your product gets installed on billions computers before you even know it. I have seen this tactic get used for many mediocre products. For example, 3rd party dishwasher soap recommended by dishwasher company. Amazingly powerful. I don’t think most of CrowdStrike employees even knew they were in more than billion computers with paid service. The CEO was just busy doing brutal marketing of this pointless product.
