Care to specify?

If Windows had better security and update practices, software like CrowdStrike wouldn’t be a necessity.

If windows were absolutely perfect with no flaws whatsoever, CrowdStrike wouldn’t be a necessity. I agree with that.

Unfortunately we live in the real world and no OS is perfect so software like CrowdStrike exists on lots of operating systems.

Btw, Crowdstrike isn't necessary but it's very nice to have for companies. You don't need real time protection like that on a normal client you use at home.
