This decision follows the global Windows 10 outage on Friday, which CrowdStrike acknowledged was caused by a bug in one of its updates.

Musk shared the information with his over 100 million followers on Twitter. "We just deleted CrowdStrike from all our systems," he stated, expressing frustration over the recent technical glitch that affected numerous users worldwide.

The outage, which lasted several hours, left many businesses and individuals unable to access their systems, causing significant disruptions. CrowdStrike later admitted that a bug in a recent update to their antivirus software was the root cause of the issue.

In a statement, CrowdStrike explained, "We identified a bug in our latest update that unfortunately led to a global outage for Windows 10 users. We are working diligently to ensure this does not happen again and to restore trust with our customers."

Musk's decision to remove CrowdStrike underscores the impact and importance of reliable cybersecurity solutions for major corporations. His public announcement has garnered attention and sparked discussions about the reliability and accountability of cybersecurity providers.

As businesses and individuals continue to recover from the outage, CrowdStrike is likely to face increased scrutiny and pressure to improve their systems and prevent such incidents in the future.
