If anything good comes out of the CrowdStrike disaster it’s that, hopefully, everybody in the cybersecurity vendor industry learns to be a little more humble.
This era where many people have promoted themselves to be gods fighting terrorism etc is so stupid.
There’s people being paid more than doctors - who fix humans - who think they’re Cyber Batman. Selling solutions that often don’t work, aren’t secure, and negatively impact user experience and availability.
You’re Cyber Jabba The Hutt.

There are, of course, many people quietly doing good work.
But there’s also guys - yes, they’re guys - playing with their threat actor Transformers, thinking they’re in a holy war to stop Russia and China, and that only they - the chosen few - know what is best for their customers and that they’re the elite of the elite cyber warriors. People have drunk their own marketing kool aid.
A reality check is being in an airport on July 19th, or talking to anybody outside the industry - nobody cares.

@GossiTheDog yes this scammy cybersecurity industry is too male dominated, we need more women in the space
