Channel files are different from sensor updates, which you have no control over for version control. Sensor releases you have control over.
Comment on CrowdStrike’s faulty update crashed 8.5 million Windows devices, says Microsoft
boatswain@infosec.pub 3 months agoA coworker of mine has worked with CrowdStrike in the past; I haven’t. He said that the releases he was familiar with from them in the past were all staged into groups and customers were encouraged to test internally before applying them; not sure if this is a different product or what, but it seems like a big step backwards of what he’s saying is right.

I first dealt with them at least 6-8 years ago and at the time they had no ability to do staged roll outs or targeted roll outs. We got updates when they said we did, no choice or control. We had to resort to updating our firewall to restrict the download endpoint and only open it in groups to do a phased update.

Interesting! Sounds like they may have changed things a few times, or maybe my co-worker’s memory has some gaps.
