MSFT doesn’t recommend or specify CrowdStrike


I wonder if companies are incentivized to buy Crowdstrike because of Crowdstrike's warranty that will allegedly reimburse you if you suffer monetary damage from a security incident while paying for Crowdstrike.


If such a warranty exists, the real question will be how Crowdstrike tries to spin this as a non-security incident.


The CEO says it isn't and we believe them apparently


There must be an incentive. Because from a security perspective bringing in a 3rd party to a platform (microsoft) to do a job the platform already does is literally just the definition of opening up holes in your security. Completely b@tshit crazy, the salesmen for these products should hang their heads in shame. It's just straight up bad practice. Im astounded it's so widespread.


Insurance companies recommended them
