CrowdStrike — 8.5M Machines

Problem:
A single corrupted pattern update propagated to 8.5M endpoints. Each endpoint trusted the update without independent safety evaluation.

Shared Flaws Become Universal Damage

Why It Matters:
Large fleets behave like a single organism. A flawed assumption, once shared, becomes universal damage.

Impact:
The blast radius becomes unbounded.

Large fleets behave like a single organism. A flawed assumption, once shared, becomes universal damage. The blast radius becomes unbounded.

Insight:
Distributed systems must validate safety before global rollout, not after failure spreads.
