Crowdstrike Outage - INFORMATIONAL Severity: High TLP:GREEN

I believe it was before certain networking feature were available. The reports that some companies "Southwest" were using 3.1 has been proven inaccurate. 3.1 would be Windows 95. The post that companies were spared that were using 3.1 was a joke tweet that started getting spread.
any Windows operating system running before 2008 (Vista/Windows 2008) did not have UAC although it was a joke tweet/post that spread.

Crowdstrike Outage - INFORMATIONAL Severity: High TLP:GREEN

I appreciate the information. I agree it was because they weren't using CrowdStrike. What is the future of CrowdStrike now? I saw they're latest advertisement and it doesn't help to make you more trusting of their offerings given this latest hack?
It wasn't really a hack it was a misconfiguration that cause the Windows computers to crash (BSOD) although it is just a preview of Year 2038 bug Unix bug for things that have not been updated since the 1970's
