LTC Eugene Chu I think they Need to Hire More "Cyber Punks", Cryptologic Technicians with Computer NECs. "Old School Hackers". Some People Only Learn the Hard Way!

For context - It was an update error. It isn't a cyber-attack, threat actors did not cause this, and other than the fact that this is a cybersecurity tool, it has nothing to do with needing more hackers, cyber punks, or cryptologic techs. CrowdStrike already has many of the best. "Old school hackers" (which I represent along with the new) would have no effect on what has happened here. CrowdStrike simply screwed up and they are working to resolve.

Something my wife and I were discussing this morning (she used to be a senior software developer/tester), but our discussions were more along the lines of someone missing something before they rolled-out the update from the test network.
As bad as this disruption was, one of the writers for CRN that I follow (Kyle Aspach) did sum it up nicely though - "A global outage meltdown is awful, but the alternative—using security tools that aren’t equipped to stop hackers—is much, much worse."

COL Randall C. so I’m talking to some of our partners that do smart hand infrastructure work. They are all getting tacked to do on site remediation to each and every individual endpoint. I’m pretty sure the DOD is heavily invested in crowdstrike right now too.
