The correct lesson is to stop introducing more vulns into your systems by running "security" products. Crowdstrike was just an outage but could have just has easily been Solarwinds 2.0.

Crowdstrike is probably less bad than the alternatives that I have run into that are largely developed by very low cost engineers cough TrendMicro cough but even so, they aren't NT kernel engineers nor do they have the NT kernel release process.

Companies need to find ways to live without this crap or this will keep happening and it will be a lot worse one day. Self-compromising your own systems with RATs/MDMs/EDR/XDR/whatever other acronym soup needed to please the satanic CISSPs are just terrible ideas in general.
