A global tech disruption occurred for some users of Microsoft (MSFT) systems on Friday. One issue is a CrowdStrike (CRWD) update to some Windows devices that impacted operations across companies worldwide. Defused Cyber Deception Researcher and Founder Simo Kohonen joins to discuss the implications for CrowdStrike and the broader cybersecurity landscape.

Kohonen explains that CrowdStrike "pushed out a faulty update" that, when installed, "broke everything," affecting industries globally. He emphasizes CrowdStrike's reputation as the "top number one cybersecurity company in the world" and notes that their extensive customer base amplifies the scale of this issue. While the issue is fixable, he cautions that the timeline for resolving this problem may vary.

"From a very technical perspective, if you want to run this type of software which has a lot of capabilities, with great power comes great responsibility," Kohonen told Yahoo Finance. He adds, "I think CrowdStrike will have a lot of conversations with their current customers and their future customers about what they're doing differently. They might take a short-term hit from it, but they're still an extremely reputable vendor."
