Hackers are trying to exploit computers that are still struggling to get back online, CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz said in a statement Monday, after the cybersecurity firm’s glitchy Microsoft update took down about 8.5 million Windows devices worldwide last Friday. (The Logic)

Talking point: The company identified a malicious file called “crowdstrike-hotfix.zip” that hackers were billing to users as a quick fix to the original software update problem. Some industries around the world are still grappling with outages and their ripple effects. Airlines have been hit especially hard, with flight cancellations and disruptions continuing through the weekend and, in Delta’s case, into Monday. Most of the affected industries in Canada, which included hospitals, airlines and border services, are back to normal. CrowdStrike’s stock, meanwhile, has lost almost a fourth of its value since Friday, including a 13.5 per cent dip on Monday. SentinelOne, CrowdStrike’s main competitor (of which there are few) has gained about 15 per cent since the outage.
