Automatic security updates are widely touted as the gold standard in IT security, at least for anything that is not a life-support system.

I am talking about control, I am not talking about disabling automatisation of updates.
You can have automatic security updates with delay between non prod and prod environments so that you can detect failures or possibly intrusions.

My understanding is that customers believed they had control as Crowdstrike gave them configuration options to delay updates / stagger them. Apparently many of them were surprised that Crowdstrike had the ability to bypass all these configuration options and force the update. I think that is where Crowdstrike's liability skyrockets through the roof.
