Anybody has a better understanding of how such updates are signed (or not) on Windows?

This was a kernel driver update, right? Apparently it was not signed:

Wired claims that as a kernel driver update, it should have been signed by Microsoft:

> [T]hey require that Microsoft also vet the code and cryptographically sign it, suggesting that Microsoft, too, may well have missed whatever bug in CrowdStrike’s Falcon driver triggered this outage.
