I'm glad we flew home last Thursday instead of yesterday.

But an extra day or two in Calgary would have been fine with me.

It’s essentially modern anti-virus software that runs on a massive amount of windows systems

Crowdstrike pushed an update last night that is affecting the boot process. They didn’t test their code it looks like.

Hopefully medicals are using paper for back up at their specific locations. Not good to rely on only computers.

Same, got email around 4am stating the problem had been fixed and should only be isolated issues. Just walked thru the office and there’s a ton of blue screens in recovery mode.

Of course there's always back up plans...

Going back the to the ancient paper charting days.

Things that are going to suck is stuff like x-rays, everything is digital now, there's no more hanging images on an x-ray reader board anymore.

Good. They are a freaking deep state / intelligence state / Clinton-Obama, WEF operation and need to be put out of business.

Maybe, that was what Trump was signaling to Q with "Nessun Dorma" at the end of the convention. (kidding about this part)

But Seriously, if they are the group that was up to their eyeballs in Russia, Russia, Russia and the fiasco that was the Obamacare website, they need to burn to ash.

That's if you actually believe this happened from a software update gone wrong.

The company I work for got hit with ransomware by the Black Cat organization last May. We didn't pay so we had to start over on the Cloud.

We purchased Crowdstrike's protection and they have caught Black Cat trying to reenter our system seven more times.

I certainly know who they are relative to the DNC hack, but without Crowdstrike, our family-owned company would have likely been crushed by another ransomware attack.

A buddy of mine is on their management team. I’m guessing he is having a shitty day.
