OUR STATEMENT ON TODAY’S OUTAGE

July 19, 2024

|George Kurtz |Executive Viewpoint


Valued Customers and Partners,

I want to sincerely apologize directly to all of you for today’s outage. All of
CrowdStrike understands the gravity and impact of the situation. We quickly
identified the issue and deployed a fix, allowing us to focus diligently on
restoring customer systems as our highest priority.

The outage was caused by a defect found in a Falcon content update for Windows
hosts. Mac and Linux hosts are not impacted. This was not a cyberattack.

We are working closely with impacted customers and partners to ensure that all
systems are restored, so you can deliver the services your customers rely on.

CrowdStrike is operating normally, and this issue does not affect our Falcon
platform systems. There is no impact to any protection if the Falcon sensor is
installed. Falcon Complete and Falcon OverWatch services are not disrupted.

We will provide continuous updates through our Support Portal at
https://supportportal.crowdstrike.com/s/login/ and via the CrowdStrike blog at
https://www.crowdstrike.com/blog/statement-on-windows-sensor-update/. Please
continue to visit these sites for the latest updates.

We have mobilized all of CrowdStrike to help you and your teams. If you have
questions or need additional support, please reach out to your CrowdStrike
representative or Technical Support.

We know that adversaries and bad actors will try to exploit events like this. I
encourage everyone to remain vigilant and ensure that you’re engaging with
official CrowdStrike representatives. Our blog and technical support will
continue to be the official channels for the latest updates.

Nothing is more important to me than the trust and confidence that our customers
and partners have put into CrowdStrike. As we resolve this incident, you have my
commitment to provide full transparency on how this occurred and steps we’re
taking to prevent anything like this from happening again.

George Kurtz

CrowdStrike Founder and CEO
