Malicious actors have quickly moved to exploit today's outages caused by a bad CrowdStrike update to their software.  

While you should always be cautious, please be aware that attackers like to capitalize on incidents like this with phishing emails purporting to be from "CrowdStrike Support" or "CrowdStrike Security".  You can view the article by PC Mag at www.pcmag.com titled "Don't Fall for It: Hackers Pounce on CrowdStrike Outage With Phishing Emails" at https://www.pcmag.com/news/dont-fall-for-it-hackers-pounce-on-crowdstrike-outage-with-phishing-emails for more information.

As always, please report suspicious emails to your Crowder account using the Phish Alert Button or contact HelpDesk.
