Anybody else affected by it ? . I have mentioned before that I work in IT for a huge company , that crowdsrike outtage fooked my whole day up. I woke up like at 1:30 AM cause my work PC lit up like a christmas tree , I started to TS it and got to the point where I was like I will deal it with when I wake up . But then I could not sleep thinking about it , ended up getting like 2 hours of sleep. Then I had to wake up extra early , to try to TS as I work 100% remotely and need to be logged into all my systems by 7:30
Could not fix the issue , so I had to get ready and drive into the city (which I hate doing , traffic is horrible) to go into the corporate office I unplugged my home pc and took with me so I could TS it there . Then I got to work and the gate guards are freaking out cause our security badges where all fooked up and not working, Finally get to my workspace peek into the command center and is when I finally see the news and the extent of the outage and everything that was affected globally .
I tell you what , what a pain in the ass to fix this was and not only that but some systems will need to be replaced as in order to deploy the fix the PC has to boot up to a certain bitlocker screen prior in order to be able to boot into safe mode to deploy certain passwords and scripts to find the corrupted file and be able to delete it .Thankfully we deploy updates in batches just in case sheeit goes sideways .Needless to say work was busy AF , then it took me 2 fookin hours to get home cause the traffic was so bad reminded me why I love working 100% remote .
