CrowdStrike, a leading cybersecurity company, is facing legal trouble over a global outage caused by a software glitch. On July 19th, a faulty software update to CrowdStrike’s popular Falcon Sensor product caused Microsoft Windows systems to crash, resulting in widespread disruptions across various industries, including airlines, banks, and healthcare systems.
The outage had far-reaching consequences, with millions of computers affected worldwide. Shareholders are now suing the company, alleging that CrowdStrike made false and misleading statements about its technology, concealing the potential for such disruptions. They claim that the company’s reassurances about its technology’s reliability proved to be materially false and misleading.
The lawsuit, filed in a Texas federal court, seeks damages for shareholders who suffered significant financial losses due to the outage. CrowdStrike’s share price fell 32% over 12 days, wiping out $25 billion of market value. The company has yet to respond to the lawsuit.
