Federal government issues rare emergency declaration after a cyberattack on a major US pipeline choked the transportation of oil to the eastern US.

on Sunday after a cyberattack on a major U.S. pipeline choked the transportation of oil to the eastern U.S.

“While this situation remains fluid and continues to evolve, the Colonial operations team is executing a plan that involves an incremental process that will facilitate a return to service in a phased approach,” the company said in a press release. The FBI confirmed Monday that the culprit is a strain of ransomware called DarkSide, believed to be operated by a Russian cybercrime gang referred to by the same name. Like many ransomware gangs, DarkSide makes money by hacking a victim’s network, encrypting their files so they can’t be accessed and threatening to publish them online if they’re not paid a hefty fee.
