This was not a problem from Microsoft. It was a problem from the Crowd Strike company.
This was an organizational and management problem, not sabotage. They released an insufficiently tested version of their computer security product on their entire customer base at the same time. You never do that.
They won't do that again. Most likely they will go out of business and cannot do that again.
ok, sure Crowd Strike, not MS.
That said, it’s so amateurish I have to question that it could be sabotage. We don’t know it wasn’t.
I’m a software architect and manager responsible for safety critical software systems, I’m well aware of release tools and processes.
