Mass cyber attack happening right now Australia

a reply to: cherokeetroy

Okay, I have worked in cybersecurity consulting for over a decade now. Do you want to know how many three-letter agency people I've worked with? An absolute ton of them, most get their experience with these agencies and move to the private sector as it pays significantly better with better benefits. I understand this is a conspiracy site, and I'm right there with a lot of people; however, when it comes to things of a cybersecurity nature, even the companies that provide service, it's an area that I know I can speak authoritatively on. In all likelihood, this is a nothing burger and will be forgotten in about two weeks.

In all likelihood, you're right, his stock sales are probably a "nothingburger" but looking at the scope of the entire picture, considering Crowdstrike history with the DNC, fake Russian collusion hoax, Obama's administration, in addition to the extremely volatile political climate ATM not the mention recent assassination attempt, Democratic party in turmoil and highly crucial election coming up, I doubt very much this incident with Crowdstrike is a nothingburger

I doubt nefarious schemes afoot. This is simply what happens when you outsource everything tech related to India. Major incompetence.

Duff software update. Conspiracy? Nah. Cock up.

I speak and read Russian. So, this isn’t a me thing. If I had my way, I’d be able to go visit Russia without a Visa, and make peace via trade and good will. But hey, not everyone is me so, there’s that. Russian women are my weakness. a reply to: RussianTroll

Here, have some facts:

"The CEO of CloudStrike has issued an on-air apology after he clarified that a faulty software update caused the massive IT failures that have caused chaos across the world today"

There you go.

Cybersecurity expert weighs in on global tech outage, when things could return to normal . This is huge.

This is bull why would major systems around the World be connected in a way to fall like dominoes - This is a trial run why on earth would you have 1 software that could shut down the World like covid ..................... I have shipments that just took off with Delta that should have left last night before this outage . I mean like 20 min of my post time .

That's just stupid so one idiot can shut down half the World with a minor accidental mistake ? Just think what that Idiot could do if he wasn't really a Idiot .

How can there be one mandatory update push for so many systems without permissions ....

That's how software updates work.

It's an update for lots of clients.

My laptop gets lots of updates.
