For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Those companies/organisation that have signed up to Cloudstrike’s services, allow their servers to give permission to them (Cloudstrike) to make critical changes to their systems automatically (in the name of protecting their systems from viruses, malware etc).
Once hackers breach whatever protection is in place to prevent unauthorised access to the Microsoft software (as used by Cloudstrike), all connected Microsoft server systems would be at risk of a similar outage – which could not be fixed by a simple re-boot in safe mode.
