Ouch! I appreciate your sense of humor, you get me. Thank you for sharing. Points to the value that my business partners expect, "must excel with interpersonal skills, prioritization and time management."Hopefully, this guy is not a former student of any CINner!
The way I see it - call it CrowdStroke.

OR, hopefully, was not trying to get out of taking a cert that day! I heard the outage also brought down Pearson Vue so no one could take their scheduled exams online! Ouch!Hopefully, this guy is not a former student of any CINner!
It's important to realize that there is an important 'teachable' moment created by Friday's massive outage. We teach students about frameworks and policies in several of our courses. If organization's utilized those frameworks and adopted and used those policies then Friday's outage would simply be 'an incident' and the organization's IT change management and business continuity policies would be activated. If members of the organization are properly trained on those policies then while there would be a disruption; some business could continue. I believe that many organization's had policies and trained people in place and what we heard about on the news were simply those that have more work to do.Hopefully, this guy is not a former student of any CINner!
Having worked for a major cybersecurity company for 24 years I'll add we would never hit a competitor when they were down with an event like this. Because 'what goes around, comes around' and it could be your company next time.

You know that Vincent Filibustier is a satirical writer, right? Having said, I get the pun
The 'Fake' CrowdStrike Worker Who Took Credit For Biggest-Ever IT Outage
Microsoft outage: Vincent Flibustier broke the internet with an altered, AI-generated photo of him outside the CrowdStrike office along with the caption, "First day at Crowdstrike, pushed a little update and taking the afternoon off."

I'm teaching Cloud+ this week and we've already discussed the CrowdStrike issue exhaustively.
For me…Security+ with the CIA Triad and testing in a sandbox.
I found this video informative regarding the details of the incident:
This incident can be discussed across several topics: devsecops, kernel vs. user mode, incident response, etc. A great teaching moment!

I knocked out Pandora. I was riding my bike and unable to stream Pandora. Sad. Sad. Sad.
