FBI: DarkSide group behind ransomware hacking of US Colonial Pipeline

Live Mint  

The FBI said Monday that ransomware from the shadowy DarkSide group forced the shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline network, as the major fuel supplier said it was beginning to resume operations after the three-day freeze. Colonial said in a statement that it was moving toward a partial opening of its 5,500 miles of pipeline -- the largest fuel network between Texas and New York -- after hackers locked down its corporate IT systems on Friday, apparently demanding a significant amount of money in ransom. At the White House, Deputy National Security Advisor Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall said President Joe Biden was being kept updated on the incident, which threatened to crimp supplies of gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel across much of the eastern United States. Colonial said in a statement that "segments of our pipeline are being brought back online in a stepwise fashion."
