CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz announced that the company is still working to restore systems a week after causing a global computer outage that rippled through the global economy. As of Thursday, more than 97% of Windows sensors were back online, Kurtz wrote in a LinkedIn post. "This progress is thanks to the tireless efforts of our customers, partners, and the dedication of our team at CrowdStrike," he said. I am deeply sorry for the disruption this outage has caused and personally apologize to everyone impacted," he wrote. Almost immediately after the outage, Kurtz said in a post on X that it was "not a security incident of cyberattack" and that a fix had already been deployed.
