It's odd that they call it the CrowdStrike "outage". It's not an outage in the sense that some CrowdStrike infrastructure is down. It's that a bug in an update sent out by CrowdStrike caused its customers' systems to fail. The outages are on the customers' computers, not any CrowdStrike computers.
Probably a better phrase would be "CrowdStrike bug".
