Crowdstrike 

To render numerous computer systems unresponsive by various means, most notably by writing faulty kernel-level code for an operating system that permits third-party ring 0 access.
Dev 1: "Isn't the world too peaceful right now?"

Dev 2: "Don't worry, our next update will crowdstrike global infrastructure if the intern keeps it up."

Dev 1: "Haha- Wait, did we give the intern account rights to push to prod?"

Dev 2: "Oh fuck-!"

CrowdStroke 

When a software change or update negatively affects Production devices (Like CrowdStrike 2024 did) and your blood pressure spikes similar to a heart attack.
My heart almost had a CrowdStroke when I started get calls from Support after pushing out an software update.

crowdstriking 

1. The act of releasing a product (typically software) without adequate testing that then causes a significant adverse effect.
2. The practice of getting your end users to perform your testing for you by releasing untested product.
Management said it had to be released today so we resorted to some crowdstriking.
