🚨 Cyber Crisis in 2024: The CrowdStrike domino effect 🚨
“The CrowdStrike incident probably touched all of us in some way, even if we weren’t directly impacted.” – Robert Feldman
A routine software update. A global outage. A lesson in crisis management.
In our latest conversation, Nicholas Lovell, Robert, and Jonathan Hemus break down one of the most significant cyber crises of 2024 – the CrowdStrike incident. What started in Australia quickly rippled across time zones, taking down Microsoft machines worldwide. The cause? An update to an endpoint detection system that may not have been tested properly before being pushed globally… on a Friday.
Key Takeaways:
🔹 No organisation is immune to cyber incidents.
🔹 Crisis response plans must be tested, adaptable, and immediate.
🔹 The risks of untested updates and Friday deployments are very real.
We also discuss the Transport for London cyber attack and the MediSecure data breach, highlighting the legal and operational lessons every organisation should learn.

🔍 Learning from 2024’s cyber crises: Are you prepared for what’s next?
“The incidents we’ve discussed are good reminders of the sorts of things that can actually impact your organisation… and they will keep occurring.” – Robert Feldman
Cyber attacks and supplier failures aren’t going away. In fact, similar incidents will happen in 2025 and 2026. So the real question is: what can we learn now to be better prepared?
In our latest discussion, Nick Lovell, Robert Feldman, and Jonathan Hemus break down three major cyber incidents from 2024—CrowdStrike, the Transport for London attack, and the Medisecure breach—to uncover:
✅ How to identify and fix weaknesses before the next crisis hits
✅ The legal implications of cyber failures—liability, contract exposure, governance, and compliance
✅ The importance of crisis management strategies that actually work
The next CrowdStrike-scale event will happen. The only question is—will your organisation be ready?

🚨 No one is too big to fail: Lessons from CrowdStrike 🚨
“Even the biggest, the best, and the most admired can be brought to their knees… This is a real warning against complacency.” – Jonathan Hemus
CrowdStrike was (and still is) a leading name in cybersecurity, built on a reputation for protecting organisations from outages. But in 2024, a faulty update—not even a cyber attack—crippled Microsoft machines worldwide.
💡 Key Lessons:
🔹 Complacency is the enemy—no organisation is immune to failure.
🔹 The most damaging crises undermine the very essence of what a business stands for.
🔹 A strong reputation doesn’t make you invincible—but a robust crisis plan can help you recover.
For a cybersecurity giant, causing the very disruptions they aim to prevent was particularly damaging. What would happen if a crisis struck at the heart of your business?
