Data Intensity has been made aware of and has identified multiple customers impacted by a recent update to the CrowdStrike Falcon sensor which can cause Windows systems to crash. This issue has impacted Windows systems that utilize CrowdStrike on a global scale. Windows servers are getting stuck in a reboot loop after being updated, preventing resolution via automatic update from CrowdStrike or by support engineers.
