  • I have managed a few single and multi tenant Sentinel One instances over the past few years, and have been happy enough to choose them again at each company. It's been effective while not being a major ticket generation machine like other products I have used like Webroot, for example. Just thought I would chime in on the topic as a Systems Administrator, SSCP, blah, blah, blah.

    Any producer of critical software should be personally and financially responsible for these kinds of errors. Their impact is so great it may be necessary for their to be an independently verified PRIOR to release .....

    Its time for more opensource EDR. Just like other disasters that were mitigated by open code, the crowdstrike thing could have been stopped before it was a problem
  • @t0m5k1
    I'd suggest Seceon, has it's own EDR and is essentially Darktrace with remediation which can be automated, You feed it syslogs and flows from core switches and firewalls to get insights and configurable actions. It also uses machine learning to compare behaviours with Mitre ATT&ck DB and many other features.

    The fact that this software digs its roots deep into kernel space is reason enough for a mass exodus from anyone competent who is capable of making a switch. Whether a Linux kernel panic or a Windows BSOD, I don't care--no software should attach itself to the kernel without damn good reason.

    McAfee EPO had a DOD Contract back in 2010. Learned a lot on that system. It was functional but unnecessarily complex.

    I am not too skilled in this topic, but my business class PC has HP Surestart, which claims to heal any corruption at the boot level from its second encrypted copy right before booting the system. Couldn't companies have something similar on their servers or computers and only give user privileges to general staff?

    the biggest issue is that Crowstrike blindly pushes updates. any form of testing would have cought these issues.
  • I guess CrowdStrike isn't going to send you a gift card after this video...lol
  • @karcinoma
    LOL who are the geniuses who think what you said was irresponsible. Thats hilarious.
  • @who2u333
    You confirmed the 'rumor' that I heard about the update ignoring tiered deployments (N-1). Thanks
  • @unkown34x33
    there's always some one that will stay with them after that f up... or! hell companies don't care... they will keep crowdstrike. but hey... maybe if they lose 4 trillion dollars, they will drop them. if I were a CEO, I would drop them on a heartbeat
  • @DickDekerson
    what you said about not following n-1 is not factual. It was a rapid response content update not a software update that caused the issue so n-1 doesn't apply and would be real bad security if you tried to follow n-1 for zero day exploits. i'm more concerned with the fact so many critical systems run on windows
