Washington (CNN Business)The cybersecurity company CrowdStrike, which has been at the center of false conspiracy theories since 2016, is once again in focus after a White House transcript published on Wednesday revealed President Donald Trump brought it up in his July call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
In a complaint released on Thursday by the intelligence community, a whistleblower expressed confusion about Trump's references to the company.
