Crowdstrike CEO: “This is not a security incident or cyber attack”

George Kurtz, the CEO of CrowdStrike, said on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter: “CrowdStrike is actively working with customers affected by a defect found in a single content update for Windows hosts. Mac and Linux hosts are not affected. This is not a security incident or cyberattack. The issue has been identified, isolated, and a fix deployed. We direct customers to the Support Portal for the latest updates and will continue to provide full and continuous updates on our website. We also recommend that organizations ensure they communicate with CrowdStrike representatives through official channels. Our team is fully mobilized to ensure the security and stability of CrowdStrike customers.”
