What does the IT breakdown caused by the IT security software Crowdstrike show us?

We are being shown that the digitalization craze is damn dangerous.

Time and again, the very tools that are supposed to ensure IT security appear. This is logical, of course, because these tools have the highest access rights to computers.

We have had in recent years:

- SolarWinds, IT monitoring software as a leak

- Microsoft Azure Cloud Masterkey stolen

- Cache vulnerability, "Meltdown"

- Attempt to compromise HTTPS by an agent

- Crowdstrike, IT security software as a vulnerability

- Unknown other backdoors in software and hardware

Governments are now also collecting masses of data and centralizing it. In today's belief in numbers, people think they can do everything better with great evaluations. So they collect what they can. Large data sets only make sense in certain cases. The more you want to differentiate data, the more crap comes out of evaluations.

Above all, large data collections are an administrative phenomenon. The urge for power leads to the centralization of power. Today, this power needs all the data of all people in one place.

This attracts hackers and secret services, as it is very tempting if you only have to open one "door" instead of many. Of course, we immediately had the biggest IT mishaps in the world.

In India, the data of 815 million Indians, including biometric data, was stolen. In China, the data of one billion people.

The centralization of administration is just as misguided as the centralization of data.

In Western Europe, the EU has seized almost all the power. They believe that they can make laws that suit them, regardless of whether it is the North Pole or southern Italy, whether it is land or sea, plains or mountains. You build a house very differently in the warm south than in the cold north.

They are too uneducated, too power-hungry to create a functioning administration. They destroy everything and themselves without realizing it.

The centralization of data in the hands of the administration is particularly dangerous. Firstly, there are not the brightest candles on the cake, confirmed by countless failed IT projects and breaches. Secondly, there is a dangerous temptation to misuse the data.

When all the data in the EU is stolen, the big headache will follow.

Good governance is decentralized and tiered.
