CrowdStrike Fires Back: Denies Blame for Delta’s Flight Fiasco

CrowdStrike denies responsibility for Delta’s flight cancellations during the July outage, countering Delta CEO Ed Bastian’s claim that the airline had “no choice” but to seek damages.

Hot Take:

Oh, come on Delta, blaming CrowdStrike for flight cancellations is like blaming your toothpaste for the weather! Can’t we just keep the skies friendly without adding cyber blame-games?

Key Points:

  • Delta Airlines CEO Ed Bastian blames CrowdStrike and Microsoft for flight cancellations.
  • Delta seeks damages after cancellations cost the airline over $500 million.
  • CrowdStrike categorically denies responsibility for the disruptions.
  • The incident traces back to a July outage involving CrowdStrike and Microsoft.
  • Cybersecurity and airline operations collide in a high-stakes blame game.
