I have no idea, bit if they weren't offering any, why would anyone buy 
their service, and why would their share price collapse 30% this week?

There is at least one on their web site

"CrowdStrike is offering a warranty to Falcon Complete™ customers that 
will cover up to $1 million in breach response expenses if there is a 
security incident within the environment protected by CrowdStrike Falcon 
Complete."

The trouble with you Lawrence, is that you never ever accept that your 
off the cuff un thought out remarjs might in fact be wrong.
