FWIW:
Pipeline inspector calls in to The Alex Jones Show: “It’s 100% engineered collapse”
I sure hope they upgrade their security or they will be paying ransoms into bankruptcy..

Set up a secure, invisible net for the real work. Or disconnect from all nets.
Let the extortionists fool with the visible version all they want. In fact infect the visible version with reverse tracking and so on.
Let’s hope they didn’t find the $5million to pay the ransom in the “Security Upgrade” fund.
If they’ve been working on this got more than a week everything should be back to normal
If they started restoring within hours there should never have been a shortage
The first of many surrenders coming under a very, very weak Biden.
The real test will be when Mandiant's engagement is over and they've left. Time will tell.
Darkside must not have researched Colonial’s financials.
1,400 million/yr in revenue and they only ask for 5 million?
Ask for 500 million and settle for 250 million.
Amateurs.
One hopes that Mandiant was contacted before the ransom was paid, and they have poisoned the wallet. Which is what I would do, instead of depositing: "You want your money? Here is a ransom wallet and n/p." If you could root that and make the bad guy believe it was legit all the way to their blockchain transfer to their own wallet or attempt a transaction .... boom.
