Black Hat: We Should Have Seen The Colonial Ransomware Attack Coming
Security Boulevard
Few need to be reminded of the fears that the Colonial Pipeline hack caused in May of 2021, in which airlines scrambled to keep their planes fueled for long-haul flights and Americans across the eastern seaboard panic-bought gas in expectation of supply disruptions.
