1 in 10 German orgs dumping their security vendors after CrowdStrike outage

Posted on September 21, 2024 by Dissent

Connor Jones reports:

Germany’s Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) says one in ten organizations in the country affected by CrowdStrike’s outage in July are dropping their current vendor’s products.

Four percent of organizations have already abandoned their existing solutions, while a further 6 percent plan to do so in the near future. It wasn’t explicitly said whether this referred to CrowdStrike’s Falcon product specifically or was a knee-jerk reaction to security vendors generally.

One in five will also change the selection criteria when it comes to reviewing which security vendor gets their business.

The whole fiasco doesn’t seem to have hurt the company much though, at least not yet.
