CrowdStrike Offers $10 Uber Eats Gift Vouchers as an Apology for the Microsoft Windows Global Outage
A source familiar with the situation informed a famous news organization that Microsoft has no intention of restricting CrowdStrike’s accessibility to the Windows operating system, despite the significant disruption.
CrowdStrike, a company that specializes in cybersecurity, was subjected to criticism on a global scale after an automated upgrade to its security software resulted in the failure of millions of machines.
According to a number of recipients and a source who confirmed receiving the gesture via Email, the company is offering a $10 Uber Eats gift card to its partners as an apology. This is being done in an effort to make amends for the negative event that occurred.
On Friday, July 19, a flawed update released by CrowdStrike caused disruptions to computers that were powered by Microsoft’s Windows operating system. These disruptions had an impact on essential services across a variety of businesses, including the airline industry, the banking industry, and the healthcare industry.
A total of around 8.5 million Windows machines were affected by the incident, as stated by Microsoft.
The trouble that was caused by the incident was apparently acknowledged in an email sent by Daniel Bernard, who is the chief business officer of CrowdStrike. “To express our gratitude, your next cup of coffee or late-night snack is on us!” stated the email, which was received from an account associated with CrowdStrike and reposted by recipients on social networking platform X (which was formerly known as Twitter).
