I thought it was going to be Crowdstrike. But I suppose that hasn’t happened yet.

Whatever tech, whatever assets, whatever they have, you can do as you will, I would need to have my head in the sand to be doing business with them. Too much smoke not to be at least a little fire. Just my opinion of course!

Edit: One of those times practicality clashes with politics apparently. Can’t say anything bad about the company that failed to protect high profile clients, then used that failure to help start the Trump/Russia fiasco before quietly walking their statements back - because to be aware of that would mean supporting the bad man.

Just purchased their product as it is at the top of the EDR market. Could you explain your comment?

The logs they send to their cloud (which is just Splunk in AWS) seems pretty transparent. In fact you can pull the raw logs directly from them via S3 buckets to see exactly what data is uploaded.

When you say it's a black box what portion of the product are you referring to?

Could you maybe take your political arguments somewhere else? This isn't a political thread, and yet another debate about Russia and Crowdstrike will easily drown out any other discussion we could possibly have about this New Yorker article. Even if you don't mean it to be, this might as well be trolling.

What exactly was the failure you're talking about?

Could you elaborate on Crowdstrike?
