Transform disruption into resilience: Lessons from the CrowdStrike outage

The recent CrowdStrike incident has demonstrated that no organisation, regardless of size or industry, is immune to unexpected IT disruptions.

Such incidents not only halt services, but also reveal critical weaknesses in business continuity and operational resilience strategies. 8.5 million devices were directly impacted by the CrowdStrike crash, and countless others remain at risk from various potential disruptors.

Even more alarming is the wave of cyber attacks exploiting this situation, with criminal hackers distributing fake recovery resources to spread malware. This underscores the urgent need for organisations to be vigilant and prepared for such deceptive tactics.
