Nobody ever learned from the solarwinds attack. If a massive amount of your infrastructure is backed by some obscure software, bad actors will either try to insert a backdoor or find a zero-day exploit. If people are going to neglect what just happened, crowdstrike will fall heals up, faster than solarwinds did.
