According to Foresight News, Polygon Chief Information Security Officer Mudit Gupta said that the latest version of Crowdstrike falcon EDR has a bug that causes Windows devices to crash and restart endlessly. Much of the world's IT infrastructure has been paralyzed, including emergency services, airports, and stock exchanges.

Polygon Labs also uses Crowdstrike but was not affected because non-critical updates are not pushed out to employees before testing. The Polygon network is decentralized, so even if Polygon Labs were affected, the Polygon network would not be affected in any way.
