The CrowdStrike update is linked to major IT outages worldwide.
CrowdStrike is actively working with customers impacted by the defect found in a single content update for Windows hosts. Mac and Linux hosts are not impacted. This is not a security incident or cyberattack. Crowdstrike has pulled this update, but organizations worldwide are already affected. The fix requires manual intervention, as the Windows machines are experiencing a looping Blue Screen of Death (BSOD). Armis can help streamline your journey back to normal operations ASAP:
- Identify affected systems (Armis can help with queries to uncover affected systems and the most critical assets to recover first).
- Combine this data with the switch and port information to create a laundry list of assets that need fixing. Manage this process from this query.
- If you have shadow IT within an organization, it can be hard to find. Armis can help you find these assets by reviewing the connections that are trying to communicate with services that are not available. This will help you find these shadow IT servers and then have someone manually fix them.
