CrowdStrike has denied responsibility for the recent flight disruptions experienced by Delta Air Lines. The cybersecurity firm responded to Delta's accusations on Sunday, stating that it should not be blamed for the carrier's global outage on July 19, which reportedly affected over 8 million computers. CrowdStrike described the allegations as a 'misleading narrative' according to WSJ and suggested that it had minimal potential liability in the incident. The outage was reportedly sparked by a faulty update.
