I used to work at an oil terminal where we took in the colonial pipeline. Colonial was a part of my life for 10 years. The amount of product that came through that line is unimaginable. The fact that it’s down is going to cause some major problems. I just hope they don’t hit the Harbor Pipeline too… that would be even worse. Hopefully they figure this shit out and fix this shit. Trump needs to come back ASAP. This entire country is turning into a giant joke.

If a company doesn't have a good IT security team, it can be a clusterfuck. Worst case scenario is they have no backups, no incident response plan, poor network monitoring, no updating core systems to patch vulnerabilities. Research what happened with the Target hack in 2013. One HVAC vendor's laptop ended up with hackers pivoting into point of sale cash registers. Until a full post mortem is done, we won't know what really happened here. There have a been a lot of enterprise vulnerabilities lately. Solar Winds, Codecov, MS Exchange. Could have been anything.
