CrowdStrike CFO Burt Podbere says the cybersecurity firm has not faced lawsuits over July’s global IT outage. Speaking at a conference, Podbere emphasized efforts to shift customer focus from legal threats to business discussions. The Register: There were dark rumblings from Delta Air Lines last month, for example, threatening litigation over alleged gross negligence. At the time, CrowdStrike reiterated its apologies, saying: “Public posturing about potentially bringing a meritless lawsuit against CrowdStrike as a long-time partner is not constructive to any party.” During his time at the Citi conference, Podbere admitted: “We don’t know how it’s all going to shake out.
“Everything we’re doing and trying to do is take the legal discussion away from our interaction with customers and move it to the business discussion. “And as time goes on, that does get easier because we’re moving further away from the Sun, right? And that’s how we think about it.”
