North Carolina Governor: "There will be plenty of gas as long as you don't panic buy."

the most amazing part of the hackers is the fact they admitted they were behind it but did not expect to cause the pipeline to shutdown and cause shortages and prices rising

Also Darkside is pretty interesting, and evil
They use common business practices to maximize their criminal profits.
Like sending out public press releases, selling software (ransomware in this case) as a service to other crime groups, and providing technical support among other things.

Great posts sir. We think "oh, it was just the billing systems" but some of these are much harder to detect and eradicate than that.
