      My guess: Because they reviewed and signed the kernel space code which calls code that is unreviewed and unsigned (or, at the very least, pulls directly from files that are unreviewed and unsigned without proper validation or error checking), calling out CrowdStrike’s failure puts them on the hook too.

      They aren’t, it’s more “it’s the EUs fault for forcing us to allow businesses like cloud strike to write kernel level antivirus, because we already have our own.”
