> How costly can it be to test the file fully in a CI job?

It didn't need a CI job. It just needed one person to actually boot and run a Windows instance with the Crowdstrike software installed: a smoke test.

TFA is mostly an irrelevent discourse on the product architecture, stuffed with proprietary Crowdstrike jargon, with about a couple of paragraphs dedicated to the actual problem; and they don't mention the non-existence of a smoke test.

To me, TFA is not a signal that Crowdstrike has a plan to remediate the problem, yet.
