DEFINITION – While the situation is returning to normal for the services affected by the exit met by the virus offered by CrowdStrike, the results for businesses may last for a few more days.

“It may take some time to resolve the matter.” It is with the face of struggle that Georges Kurtz, the director of CrowdStrike, said on the CNBC channel, after the exit of one of its operations involving Microsoft, affecting many companies around the world. While the situation is returning to normal, he explained that the total resolution of the problems created will be gradual, “some programs don’t recover automatically.”

Unlike large groups of, “have the means to automatically return to the affected IT services to return to a stable state”, he continued.

Communication groups are loaded

However, Johan Klein would like to point out that the incident encountered by CrowdStrike is less serious than a cyberattack. “If it is a cyber attack, it will be important to first detect the threat and then try to stop the attack and isolate the affected device first.professional report, And then, the research and the research to try to understand is very long. We must understand how the attack could have happened,” he assured. “Finally, we’re a little less in the dark,” try to fix the program manager.
