One of the things that was included in the mass email sent to all employees at my hospital was "DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANYTHING; WAIT FOR IT STAFF TO COME PHYSICALLY TO YOU" because we knew bad actors were 100% going to take advantage of the chaos. :(
The only solution to then time was to go to safe mode and uninstall the update 291*but the problem is to do it in each and every system even worse is many IT pros, managers and techies who worked at firms' that got affected by this problem was not aware on how to do it and still worse not even had the idea to Google it or go to forums for help from people like you.

Great Video Leo! Whenever something becomes popular, malware disguised as it doesn’t take long to appear. Doesn’t matter if it’s crowdstrike or pokemon go, if it’s popular, that’s the malware creators to make a target to take advantage.
1:21 - I was walking around at the local mall today and seen a display that was still Crowdstricken at Macy's (You could tell because it was the Windows 10/11 Recovery Screen) as for the store itself it's back to full operations
I mean any system administrator or like novice technician will follow instructions given by Crowdstrike or their seniors at the company. A technician working on fixing this issue will be very ignorant if he falls for this. But this outage was all over the news globally so its likely that normal person will fall for this malware even if their PC works fine
As awful as it was, what you're asking is to make thousands of employees unemployed after a single incident. Personally I think either the higher ups and/or the dev who pushed the update should be fired, but not everyone.
then you would have to find a new product and mitigate your systems to another end point security solution, which is another hell to handle for IT. that is not the way around....
Why is the diversion of the problem from Micorsoft to Crownstrike, we already bought Microsoft OS, our machine is PC windows machine, I did not hear before about this Crownstrike, is MS looking for escape goat?
sorry to bother you here but I downloaded kaspersky virus removal tool from links in one of your videos but now I want to remove it from my pc but it doesn't show in apps&features can you please hlep me on how to remove this tool from pc . it would be great help
Would you please check the security of the different .exe that you need to install to download in several sites? like baidu or pikpak? I have always been wary of installing those for being dangerous.
You can boot your PC into the Safe Mode menu from off state (Disclaimer - Not an expert just going off of Microsoft's Website) by holding down the power button for 10 seconds on the "Windows Logo" Twice to enter the Recovery Environment This may be different on a larger scale setup akin to ones that would be using Crowdstricken then an average personal use PC (Also I'm only accounting for Windows 10/11 since they were the affected OSes)
@@clawwer4404 But why would I want to download and execute the malware to fix the problem after I have just fixed it? Anyone who does a such thing should have their head checked.
@@D.von.N I guess people that know how to follow simple steps and fix it themselves, should know better and not execute the virus. But they play on confusion, people that don't know better. I can't say I don't disagree with you!
But does updating crowd strike on live OS crash it instantly? Or does it stop booting only after reboot and you can uninstall update from UI until you reboot?
Does that particular malware work in safe mode? That's all a machine someone would want to apply a fix on would be able to boot into. Nontheless, thanks for spreading awareness. There will be people tempted to test it on a healthy device.
No they do not. That is an incredibly immature take on the matter. With that flawed logic, it always appears to promote the idea of “blame the victim, not the criminal taking advantage of the vulnerable”.
If this pdf and link wasn't fully made by AI I feel embarrassed by the script kiddie that wrote the document and the software linked in...

Cringe over 9 thousand. Even SMS scammers
There's no way for Crowdstrike to fix it from their end, as the affected machines are stuck in a bootloop and can't get out to the internet. So the only fix, as Leo said, is to manually boot into Safe Mode and delete the faulty driver.
@@amritlohia8240 Wow, that sucks. By the way some people worded it, I thought Crowdstrike or Microsoft had already done something to fix those PCs. I understand why these malwares are so dangerous right now, then

Good work.
Well TBF, if their system was affected they'd be in a boot loop and not see that memo.
If they weren't affected, IT would not be coming anyway.
You couldn't install it anyway your terminal wouldn't have admin access would be controlled via a mainframe.

Their stock went from $392 to $259 - over 40% drop. I won't be surprised if their is a bankruptcy or a merger / acquisition... They deserve it.

not being affected though, i think?!😅 but iam here for the sharing/ spreading of this video! Thanks for your effort to make these videos!🙏
Isn't the blue screen the best way to prevent you from downloading a virus? :D

clownstrike really needs to be shut down after this careless incident

Awesome Thank you for Sharing 💯✴
Yeah. Guys, isn't this lovely? Why am I not surprised that nasty people would play off of something like this?
Hey The PC Security! Quick question, what mouse cursor do you use? Looks good to use.
Thanks Leo!
what vm do u use to run malware? i use virtual box and it is laggy
Why is the diversion of the problem from Micorsoft to Crownstrike, we already bought Microsoft OS, our machine is PC windows machine, I did not hear before about this Crownstrike, is MS looking for escape goat?
for everything these days there is a malware variant

Wonder how many customers will leave Crowdstrike, is there even big competition ?
Excuse me where can i get the malwares to test my computer for research?
Www can people really fall for this one? I get normie's but sys
admins should know better
I agree
How can you run this update if you cannot boot your system from BSOD? Am I missing something?
You can boot your PC into the Safe Mode menu from off state (Disclaimer - Not an expert just going off of Microsoft's Website) by holding down the power button for 10 seconds on the "Windows Logo" Twice to enter the Recovery Environment

you can't. You can delete the sys file that is corrupted by crowdstirke, and afterwards download the virus and execute it .

There's this other fix that says you should just reinstall windows, but then again, that's also just more malware...
Clownstrike
😂
Thanks, Leo!
I am not even remotely surprised they're making this stuff
Actually one of the sites you showed is a legitimate IT service company, not a scam or malware.
Does that particular malware work in safe mode?
That's all a machine someone would want to apply a fix on would be able to boot into.
Nontheless, thanks for spreading awareness. There will be people tempted to test it on a healthy device.
It probably does work in safe mode
Crowdstrike website
English or Spanish
Hahaha....didn't take them long! Then again, if someone is running any update from within a PDF, they had it coming!
1:00 yas 😂
Rootkit as a service... Great idea.
Honestly It's a great idea ..
How to remove opencandy 😢 it ruin my wifi
five days and counting on getting everything back online!
Anyone that gets caught with this malware deserves all they get, CrowdStrike tell you how to solve the problem, as well as this channel and others.
No they do not.
That is an incredibly immature take on the matter.
With that flawed logic, it always appears to promote the idea of “blame the victim, not the criminal taking advantage of the vulnerable”.
Also note the important message that the creator delivers at 5:30

Called this
They should rebrand to crashstrike
How are u supposed to run malware while you can't even boot lol what a genius masterhacker moment
I was gonna say something but your username already told me to not

Can you share this virus total link?
I dumped Crowdstrike BS. Looking for a better product.
cool

The best way to fix blue screen of death is too paint it black your screen. 😂
CROWDSTRIKE ISSUE:
USA = Panic and destruction
UK = Ugh?
🤔
My opinion is:
The digital future looks dark. Really dark.
Stop using any kind of computer, unless you need it for really important stuff (work, etc).
Buy a dumb phone, it can still do the most important thing: calling.
Spread the word...
they stop supporting 3g, less chance for dumb phone
Sounds like you was infected.
