"Mistakes happen at all levels in all organizations, some are just more public than others!" Part of a comment I made to my CIO/CTO peers last Friday when we were collectively discussing the unfolding Crowdstrike issues. At times like those, being part of a global network of fellow technology leaders can be invaluable. Mark Chillingworth provides an insight into these discussions, along with outcomes in his recent short article. Well worth a read if you're interested in how the crisis was dealt with from a CIO/CTO perspective. #cio #crowdstrike https://lnkd.in/dz9rZDh8

What price can you put on resilience? After hearing the stories today of so many IT teams battling the Crowdstrike event, preserving critical services and keeping companies running, I couldn’t be more impressed at the good side of these teams. Much respect to those on the front line. After the dust has settled, many companies and organizations may have seen a rare glimpse into the value of their IT environment, the talented technical professionals that run them, and the reasons we ask for those resilient designs, diversity and redundancy, and high-availability configurations. If today’s event truly was the largest IT related outage in history, organizations may have just finally discovered their best estimate of the cost of an outage. Hopefully the next time they are asked to scale back the best design or configuration, today can be an example to build a more resilient environment. And, hopefully today opens up more doors for a renewed focus on resilience, with the support IT teams need in their organizations. Keep doing the good work, everyone! These are the times when you earn the title “professionals”. #resilience #itprofessionals #tech #crowdstrike

The CrowdStrike Outage: a stark reminder of how critical it is to invest in a sturdy and resilient infrastructure. Modern businesses cannot afford downtime the cost financially and to brand reputation is colossal. Unforeseen tech breakdowns are inevitable but preparedness is vital #CloudComputing #TechBreakdowns

Got back from RSA and Gartner conference and wanted to share few perspectives on the tectonic shifts in SIEM / XDR land: 1️⃣ Palo Alto acquired IBM’s QRadar (%9.2 market share) 2️⃣ Crowdstrike launched its new ‘next-gen SIEM’, Falcon during RSA 3️⃣ Logrythm (%4.2 market share) & Exabeam are merging And of course, all of this is coming in the heels of Splunk’s acquisition by Cisco a few months ago… Splunk is still the market leader, and by a wide margin. But there’s blood in the water, and rivals are circling. Microsoft in parallel keeps on gaining market share via Sentinel. Interesting to see where this goes, how will the SIEM market shake up? At the very least, more competition could lead to pricing changes and more innovation in this space - and frankly saying it’s about time.
