CSO Online, Tuesday, July 23rd, 2024
As the IT world recovers from the massive outage triggered by CrowdStrike's Falcon update, CISOs and CIOs would be wise to keep a running ledger of lessons learned. Here are some initial considerations.
Whether you've survived the CrowdStrike incident or didn't use CrowdStrike and are merely seeing the impact to others, taking time to learn lessons from this event is vital. After all, if you couldn't recover easily from this, then you may be lost trying to recover from a ransomware attack.
At issue are potential shifts you might want to consider making to your staffing strategies, technical processes, and communication channels and culture, as well as your approach to ensuring hardened assets overall.
