Sounds a bit like its a bad idea to install CrowdStrike regardless of the system 🙃

Noone needs to defend Windows. We need to defend the truth. And the truth is that this was not a Windows issue. It's a Crowdstrike issue.

Windows being an insecure shit show is no one else's fault though. Not sure why that draws an argument. It's well known

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

True. But nothing to do with this incident. That's the point.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Everything to do with it. You don't buy expensive software to protect your shitty OS unless it's a shitty OS

Linux had a similar outage a few weeks ago, my man.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

And yet I heard zero peeps about it. Probably because 99% of IT departments know windows is vulnerable as fuck while 99% know that Linux doesn't need babysitting.

"It's technically possible for other OSes to be affected by a thing like this" is a shit argument and you should get the MS dick out of your mouth.

checkbox compliance – companies are required to have something in place that checks the box so they can pass the audit

If you're lucky, you only gave to have the software installed - but not running.
