CrowdStrike faces widespread lawsuits from a faulty software update that brought down Windows machines across the world in July.

I would honestly think freezing airports, hospitals and other services for days would cause a lot of legal trouble.

At least that’s what would happen if an experienced hacker did the same thing.

    If I had to guess there would be, at the very least, some businesses that used their business continuity insurance.

    Those companies, after paying those claims, will probably be expecting reimbursement or preparing to sue crowdstrike to recoup those costs.

      And likely Crowdstrike will have their own insurance. At the end of the day, it’s just gamblers sitting at the table, moving the chips around.
