Does this mean a computer without internet access and with CrowdStrike would be unable to start up?

[ozzcer]

Surely a computer without internet would not have received the update?

[TestingWithEdd]

But then would CrowdStrike stop the startup saying it requires network connectivity to initialize or something? Just wondering how invasive the app is

[Jtsummers]

No, it'd boot up just fine without a network connection (as long as it didn't have this borked update).

[ryanjshaw]

How did it get broken then?

[TestingWithEdd]

As in, does the OS require the internet so CrowdStrike can send telemetry data OR will it skip that step and just boot the OS like normal?

[indigodaddy]

That would seem crazy. Maybe there is a crowdstrike onprem “master server” that is supposed to be available internally? Just spitballing, have no idea really
