Bryson Bort of Scythe.io talks Colonial Pipeline: Lessons Learned
from ConversingLabs Podcast · host ReversingLabs
Bryson Bort of Scythe.io spoke with host Paul Roberts about the May 2021 Colonial Pipeline hack that caused a fuel shortage on America's southeastern coast. Bort tackles the question: “What the hell happened?” He mentions that the incident truly was a “watershed moment” for the industry, since this ransomware attack directly impacted the lives of everyday Americans. But the bigger picture on Colonial also includes years of ignored warnings about the possibility of just such an attack. Now that the attack has happened, however, Bort worries that the cybersecurity industry is stuck in their echochamber trying to understand it, rather than conversing with other key players to get a better picture of this incident.
