BANGKOK, July 16 (Reuters) - Six people were found dead at an upmarket hotel in Bangkok on Tuesday, including at least one American national of Vietnamese descent, the Thai government said, as the prime minister ordered a swift investigation to stem any damage to the tourism sector.
The Thai police said in a separate statement that the six people were all foreign nationals.
The incident, which took place at Bangkok's plush Grand Hyatt Erawan hotel, comes as Thailand looks to further promote its tourism sector, a key driver of Southeast Asia's second largest economy.

Falcon Content Update Remediation and Guidance Hub | CrowdStrike

Access consolidated remediation and guidance resources for the CrowdStrike Falcon content update affecting Windows hosts.
www.crowdstrike.com www.crowdstrike.com

Current Action​

  • CrowdStrike Engineering has identified a content deployment related to this issue and reverted those changes.
  • If hosts are still crashing and unable to stay online to receive the Channel File Changes, the following steps can be used to workaround this issue:

Workaround Steps for individual hosts:​

  • Reboot the host to give it an opportunity to download the reverted channel file. If the host crashes again, then:
    • Boot Windows into Safe Mode or the Windows Recovery Environment
      • NOTE: Putting the host on a wired network (as opposed to WiFi) and using Safe Mode with Networking can help remediation.
    • Navigate to the %WINDIR%\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory
    • Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys”, and delete it.
    • Boot the host normally.
    • Note: Bitlocker-encrypted hosts may require a recovery key.

Workaround Steps for public cloud or similar environment including virtual:​

Option 1:​

  • Detach the operating system disk volume from the impacted virtual server
  • Create a snapshot or backup of the disk volume before proceeding further as a precaution against unintended changes
  • Attach/mount the volume to to a new virtual server
  • Navigate to the %WINDIR%\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory
  • Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys”, and delete it.
  • Detach the volume from the new virtual server
  • Reattach the fixed volume to the impacted virtual server

Option 2:​

  • Roll back to a snapshot before 0409 UTC.

Propaganda has no shame, the bigger the better
After the islamist attack:
"
Hans Goldenbaum, who works for a local German organisation for preventing violence and radicalisation, told Reuters the suspect had been known for his "anti-Islamic" rhetoric online.

Multiple news organisations, including Der Spiegel magazine, reported the suspect had sympathies with the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.

German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser said the suspect was Islamophobic, but she declined to comment on the motive.
