What amazes me is that so many big companies still use windows in critical core infrastructure.
Windows endpoints is one thing, but anyone using windows servers and MSSQL for mission critical application stacks need to be hit with the modernization hammer.
And then on top of that, they do not have a test rollout of any changes in a test environment, before rolling it out in the production stack.
Good luck to all the engineers in the trenches, having to fix the mistakes of their leadership.
There are many, many, many specialized enterprise applications out there that are windows only.
not when it comes to server software. In that regard, linux is infront.
Way too many. It's not the 90's or early 2000s anymore.
I've not used crowdstrike, but looks like a part of the pitch is "cloud managed", which often implies that the vendor takes care of everything, including updates. Particularly since they market it as a security solution, they weld likely emphasize that they can update rapidly enough to keep up with security attacks that move very quickly because they don't care about "risk".
