You know, there was a time when I might have been shocked to hear that people needed to be told not to fill bags with gasoline. But after the last few years, I can't say I'm even mildly surprised.
Sorry Leonaza!! What's worse than seeing a suspicious link in your comment?! Ugh my fuse with these mofos is getting so short!
Shut up

They would still have to read the books for that to work...
You really expect these people to read anything other than Facebook posts or conspiracy Blogs?
@@ItsPHSupreme Can we please not bring race into every single topic? Plus blanket statements are never accurate. And lastly, directly to your point I thought the people fighting for who gets the gas pump first weren't white but I didn't look that closely. Did you?
I'm a teacher in a school district where this happened two and a half weeks ago. I just got back online and was able to teach my classes today, and because I teach a "specials" class, I only see them once a week, so this was the first time I taught students in three weeks. Whoever did that to us can kick rocks.
Do teachers not know how to get angry and swear at stuff? That’s enough to make me flip. Do you have the control of a Buddhist monk.

@@dustinblackburn6541 I curse up a storm, just when I am posting comments on UA-cam, I know some of my students could easily Google them, so I try not to curse in comments that I post online. Also "[insert person] can kick rocks" is a saying that Akilah Hughes, who is a co-host of my favorite podcast, What a Day, says all the time.
Don't blame the hackers. Blame the idiot on your network that randomly downloaded the spam file and opened it.
The irony of driving around to buy gas is hilarious
I was just thinking about that 😂 I was like “Why do you keep driving!? Just save what you have”
Especially because it's soooo unnecessary. Even if you need gas (which I'm assuming most people actually did not) you could just call the gas station and ask if they still got gas and then drive to the one that tells you "Yes".
Not surprising though, given the number of flat earthers, anti-vaxxers, Q supporters etc. People r dumb.

Its bad when the criminals have more of a sense of accountability than our own government, police, and corporations
💀
I think they were afraid to be marked as terrorists and then the CIA would be after them to send them to Guantanamo.
people really believe these hackers don't know the effect of their action. Totally didnt target the biggest pipeline in America on purpose....
Now I know next time I Rob somebody I can keep their looters as long as I apologize After.
these "people" really believing that the russians did this
@Me Me actually, the hackers only target rich companies that have a way of recovering. They *have* a moral compass. They have policies on who they're going to steal from. Its like Robin hood. They don't steal from hospitals, charities or non profit organizations and so many more. This hoarding stuff was just unexpected.
Its crazy how some people still havent learned from the toilet paper and mask shortages. Smh, some people.
Well if there are enough people putting gasoline in plastic bags so that the government had to issue a statement telling people not to do that I think it's pretty obvious why they haven't learned.

So they forgot to mention the most easy way to defend:
Backups
And the even more easy way to defend:
BACKUPS
Put everything you dont want to loose regularly on a seperate drive disconnected from the network.
Now you really know.
True. My data is in a drawer on an external hard drive, no hacker will ever get that.
Right!
Off line backups
AND a disaster recovery plan (why people keep forgetting about this?)
AND TESTING them backups.
Not sure about Russians but India call center scammers lock old people's PCs with 1234 .. just saying 😊
@@Alquanole comes down to $$, they know about it but don’t want to invest in it
@@robsnook4512 not really.
I have come in organizations as an external consultant where when I spoke about the importance of having a disaster recovery plan they looked at me as if I were speaking about future tech (yes, I am an "IT guy").
Basically what happened is that it was cheaper to pay $5M than restore from backup, presuming backups existed. Tuff to say exactly which, but either way, this was due to lack of planning.
And it turns out they are restoring from backups anyway, because the ransomers software "fix tool" is slower.
Honestly this is the best argument for green energy I’ve heard

How to defeat ransomware
Step 1 - Keep critical systems off the network.
Step 2 - Daily, Offline Backups.
Step 3 - Use Linux with SELinux enabled
I do any browsing within a virtual machine, if there is ever a problem I can just reset my whole system. vm's are not that hard to set up and most people would understand how to make them work.

Completely agreed!
I drove to 8 different gas stations just wasting the gas I had trying to find more. Makes sense. 👍🏾
It's like there's no such thing as Google and a phone to call ahead.
@@sophierobinson2738 my guess is no gas station will tell anyone whether or not they have fuel. They don't know for sure and probably all of them just said we don't know if we're going to have gas
Jason Wilkins I worked at a convenience store for a while and danged if we didn't run out of regular for apparently no reason at all. There was peevedness all the way around, from blaming the readout, to the person who read the readout, to the delivery guy. And, of course the manager, the supplier, and a slew of customers were somewhat annoyed. If it had been an area-wide thing, we could have told callers the situation. But it was just us. We got the delivery that afternoon. By the way--it was a Saturday morning.
"they need their money for brutality settlements" now that's some heavy thoughts...
If Only They face the consequences of their actions. Instead, the city government funded by the very public the police brutalize are the ones footing the bill
It's foolish of a government/company to think they're saving money by not paying for cybersecurity. It's like saying "I want to buy this house, but in order to save money, I won't purchase any insurance". If you can't get afford *any* insurance for it, you can't afford it... get a smaller house. If you can't afford any cybersecurity, you probably can't afford the risk either...
Ransomware is my school asking for fees even tho they have ended the classes 3 months ago
Same happened to me
My high school told me I could not attend graduation unless I paid class dues. This, after they told me the class dues covered part of the cost of the yearbook, that I did not order.
I told them I would give them a self-addressed and stamped manila envelope. They panicked and reversed their decision and I never paid class dues.
Basic education should be free, but it hasn't been for decades.
@@MonkeyJedi99 you work for years to get to graduation and they want to take your moment away from you over fees 😑
I have dealt with a lot of hurricanes on the gulf coast in texas. when gas is in short supply, they put a limit on how much you can purchase at once.
Part of the problem is yeah a lot of these companies have the financial ability to pay for proper IT and security, but they don't, even if they hire someone who points out security risks they often will go ignored until things like this happen.
Preaching to the choir
Because it's cheaper to cleanup the incident than it is to prevent any incident. Yay corporations!
@@karinrandall855 amen
So IT Security guys can make more money attacking networks than defending them.
I've had one client refusing to upgrade their very old network because "it all still works and the odds of it happening are very low anyway".
Yeah, remember when that Florida water processing plant that nearly distributed lethal levels of fluoride? These hacks aren't too uncommon.
I lived in So. FL for 32 years & one thing that they were stellar at was keeping our drinking water safe. A hack to their water system is really a tough thing to deal with & you're correct... lethal.
I was thinking the same thing...
I live in Florida and even after filtering my water it still tastes and smells like chlorine 🙄
I never open emails from my boss. I wait for her to come ask me “did you get my email?” 😏
Well it might still contain malware you never know
Lol, my last cyber security class was verifying emails, solid plan. Everyone laughed when I started a new job and told everyone that I wouldn’t open emails from HR. They kept laughing-until IT announced that the HR email had need compromised. No one in my section trusted their emails after that.
😂 yeah i dont bother with emails at all unless im expecting one. I instantly delete most emails unless I know Im going to receive one. If it looks important, I just let it sit there until whomever tries to call.
There's been an active effort since the 90s to to take major utilities like electrical grids and hospitals and disconnect most of their networks from the internet! The buildings could still have connects, but ones that are isolated from all important data and systems. But since this would require sweeping federal regulations, and America just loves letting the private sector cut corners, we get this mess instead.
Most do this... you heard about it because it was rare
If buildings generated their own electricity to their full capacity, there would be zero need for a vulnerable interconnected system at all. The only reason we still have those vulnérabilités is so that corporations can maximize their profits.
@@JZ-xu3vg Some, but not most. It's not rare, but it's not everywhere either.
@@ThrottleKitty Its insane to have a hospital attached to any public network. If its insane it doesnt happen. I know plenty of people in medicine and they are not some global free flowing network. information takes redundancy, and electronic or physical documentation to get outside a physicians preview. Simply put they had to get inside the system and dencrypt any info they ransomed for.

The ultimate ransomware: Being this unnecessarily dependent on oil.
But Still Need Some Energy Sources&Computers Will Still b Used in Some Form(distribution,etc.)🤔💻
@@lyndaweister9984 renewable energy?
@@LouisSubearth the reality is some people will need to use some gas and some oil. We aren't quite as a point where we could shift things over. For instance, I drive 25,000 miles a year for work. There's no public transportation option for me because it would take way too long to get my job done. I only recently moved into a house where we could purchase an Electric car. Prior to that, I was in an apartment complex where I would never have access to a charging point
@@abhignavijjapurapu209 I think that is an option for people who have a simple commute there and back. My job involves driving to random courthouses everyday. I don't think I would ever feel comfortable using an electric car
In Elon Musk world, terrorist get real job if you destroy Bitcoin. Then make a electric engine cheap enough for poverty line people in America i.e. previously unemployed terrorist. Buy worthless oil lands, and make spaceships from the all the plastics. Finally send terrorist to colonize mars. Thus Elon's bucket list is complete.
The truth is even major corporations have terrible security. As a dev I would know. Even getting employees to follow basic security policies is like pulling teeth, especially in the case of executives that have the most to lose.
There will always be a place for ransomware hackers because the threshold for protecting against it is too high for the average human to achieve.
Facts
Yes, that is so true. Me and my IT department decided unanimously to make drastic changes, because we weren't getting the funding we needed to effectively secure our cyber-infrastructure, and we filtered everything not related with work for the company (browsing social media, etc.) on all levels, except the departments working with it.
Boy, the complaints everyone had... imagine how much work must've been done on the workplace before (sarcasm).
Everyone only cares about personal convenience... the IT is just there to replace the mouse when it's not working, what are they doing more than me to deserve that funding.
coffee & Trevor = perfect start in the morning
Pay more for the IT department
Or even have one in the first place, John Deere!

😂😂😂
Dark side vs the CyberNinjas, We are witnessing the birth of a new comic universe, here, folks! What a time to be alive. Our grandchildren will ask where we were when this began... okay, I’ll stop now.
🤣
What stops anyone from doing this over and over again even when they pay?
Nothing. Certainly not the US government.
Consistent daily backups and decentralizing critical systems. However both of those cost money and take away control, two things that corporations can’t tolerate. This crisis only happened because the gas company wouldn’t accept reality. You stop ransomware outside your firewall. Once it’s inside the system the only way to turn it off is to pay it. If they had paid right away there would have been no crisis. They let the public suffer for days while they tried to get around paying. Then after their own customers went through that, they pad anyway.
My guess is the desire to not be caught. There's a very high chance that they will be working with Security Experts after an attack. That's my guess.
There may also be something of a thieves code of sorts that you don't Target someone who was already paid a ransom.
My last guess would be that they would see it as not worth their time. People who enjoy things like hacking also like the actual work of hacking and probably won't find any enjoyment out of breaking into a bank with the Vault that is already been ripped open so to speak
I blame the media. They told everyone that there WILL be a shortage. I knew we wouldn’t be effected in Texas, but I honestly was worried there would be a shortage due to panic buying. There was a shortage a few years ago, because so many media outlets told us there would be one. People panic bought, and then we saw exactly what happened here. Closed stations, or complete gridlock due to lines. There wasn’t a shortage, but everyone decided to buy that same day or the next, whether they needed it or not.
The Darkside Hackers just did not want to be classified as a terrorist group.
The best entertainer on UA-cam by far i watch 😀
Love this guy 🤩
That jab at Spectrum🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪
Seeing anchors try to explain information security topics on local and national news is fun, speaking as a programmer.
The first thing a hacker does once they get control of a system: build their own back door and then close all other back doors. If you think this is the last Colonial has heard from DarkSide. You are dead wrong. Trevor is right though. If you take the OK TV scene from the movie Hackers, when he calls up the security employee... that is basically what they do. Less tech-savvy people give them all the entry they need by using lax passwords, making mistakes in code, or just plain acting like they understand cyber security.
Trevor looks like a boondocks character I love it!!
Yes the fed gov actually can do something, Trevor, they can implement regulations that would force companies (like the oil one that just got hacked) to regularly update their freaking cyber security in order to legally operate. Companies cut corners on this stuff all the time to save one more buck for their greedy shareholders and CEOs and just hope it never happens to them, then when it does, the rest of us suffer the consequences of the fallout of their negligence.

You isolate those machines from the outside no internet access or email access. It's InfoSec 101.
@@Dayandcounting that is the issue, this is an infrastructure issue; private companies involved in critical infrastructure need a partnership with the government to protect their assets from foreign interference.
