CrowdStrike is being sued by its shareholders after a faulty software update by the cybersecurity firm crashed more than eight million computers and caused chaos around the world.
The lawsuit accuses the company of making “false and misleading” statements about its software testing.
It also says the company’s share price dropped 32% in the 12 days after the incident, causing a loss in market value of $25bn (£14.5bn).
CrowdStrike denies the allegations and says it will defend itself against the proposed class action lawsuit.
Meanwhile, the firm has said computers affected by the massive global IT outage are effectively now back to normal.
The US-based company stated that as of 5pm local time on Monday, 29 July (00:00, Tuesday GMT), the outage had been fixed – ten days after the incident began.
