User ID: 78318396 United States 05/11/2021 09:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention but with everything I've heard implied that it was the hackers that shut it down. Quoting: Uncle Monkey. The hackers did not shutdown the pipeline, it was shutdown by colonial as a precaution because of the attack. "In a statement published Saturday, Colonial Pipeline said a ransomware attack infected its IT network. As a precaution, the company also shut down all its pipeline operations, including its OT network- a separate network that controls its pipelines and distributes fuel." "Connecting IT and OT networks performs a critical business function for Colonial (and other critical infrastructure providers) by enabling timely and accurate billing for fuel. However, that same connection could allow ransomware or another security compromise to compromise OT systems. That possibility led Colonial to halt pipeline operations." So colonial has it within their power to restore the pipeline. They just don't want to risk their IT and OT networks from being hit and not allowing them to accurately bill the providers.

User ID: 58237403 United States 05/11/2021 09:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | After four years of our media pushing the "Russian collusion" narrative during the Trump presidency, nobody with a brain should give them the benefit of the doubt when they assert that this was caused by a "Russian hacker". Quoting: WalrusRider The ruling elite have chosen to paint Russia as the enemy, but the real enemies are the ruling elite themselves, their zombified communist minions, and China. When every level of government and media is filled with corruption to such a degree that BLM is praised as they burn the country down, you know that none of them are trustworthy anymore. It's a sad, sick world now. Humanity really needs to unify globally and out these vile deamons and expose them for the scum that they truly are. The “sad sickness” mostly only comes from about .001% of the world population (if that). Most others are relatively centered. All it takes is the proper minute proportion to begin to fix it, and the world changes back to whatever we wish.

Eitherway total flow shutdown never happens. They will have problems restarting it. Could take up to two years.

This is not computer attack fault 100% Or admin should be fired, why they don't show who is administrator in that company? This is total joke. |

It certainly SOUNDS like a plausible reason for a shutdown but seriously, I've had ransomware attack my home computer at least three times in the past, completely freezing it so I could do nothing. But that was many years ago and even back then, there were antidotes, and NOW it never happens at all because all those FREE anti-virus software programs that come with our computers kill it before it even happens. Somehow, even the word "ransomware" seems...well...outdated. So, WHY would Colonial have to shut down the whole thing for a ransomware "attack"? They want us to believe that their anti-virus software programs couldn't nip it in the bud? That makes no sense. There's no way to connect IT and OT networks without that happening??? The PIPELINE? I don't know, I'm not buying it. I don't know what it is and of course I could be very wrong...but nope, can't see it happening as simply as they say it did.
