    The CEO of the fuel pipeline hit by ransomware will tell senators that authorizing a multi-million-dollar payment to hackers was “one of the toughest decisions” but the right thing to do. The U.S. said Monday it recovered most of the $4.4 million payment.http://apne.ws/ywtGreT

        That's about enough for 1 year's security coverage. Our company (somewhat larger) spends >$50mil/yr. and still is mediocre.

        Please update us if you hear if Colonial gets any of that money back. Because more corporate bailouts after not taking your own internet security as dead serious as they have would be just freaking awesome.

        It is the right thing to do when its an essential system. Congress and pecock all it likes and say oh dont do that, but if it were a water treatment plant and they dont pay like congress says then ppl go wothout water congress replies how could you not pay to restart the water.

        The problem is the continued habit of industry to not secure essential assets until there is a profit motivation.

        We should keep it. Don’t give money to them unless they use it to fix their issues. You KNOW there are more considering their recklessness with the old VPN.

        US Govt-We need companies to build backdoors into their systems so authorities can have access. US Govt-We need the CEO of this company to testify on how they were hacked and why they paid up.

        No... it didn't recover Most of the Money, it was half... On his decision, if he did his damn job, he wouldn't have had to make the decision at all... This CEO as many in America, can blow off their own responsibility in their failed leadership way top much.

        The recovered 67 of the 75 bitcoins used in the transactions. The fact that Bitcoin dropped in price by the time they recovered it is a different issue.
