So it would be preferable to have your data encrypted, taken hostage unless you pay, and be down for days, instead of 6 hours of just down?

- xeromal 2y agoThat's a false dichotomy
- tsimionescu 2y agoDo you seriously believe that all CrowdStrike on Windows customers were at such imminent risk of ransomware that one-two hours to run this on one internal setup and catch the critical error they released would have been dangerous? This is a ludicrous position, and has been proven obviously false by the proceedings: all systems that were crashed by this critical failure were not, in fact, attacked with ransomware once the CS agent was un-installed (at great pain).
