US Needs ‘Real Time Reaction Team’ to Combat Rise in Ransomware Attacks: Sen. Warner
The United States needs to step up its preparation for future ransomware attacks, Senate Intelligence Chairman Mark Warner (D-Va.) said Wednesday.
“We have no actual system in place, to make whether it’s Colonial Pipeline or SolarWinds or any other company, actually mandatorily report that information to the government in real time, so that we could have a full-fledged response,” Warner said on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”
“We need to put in place an entity that will include the government, the FBI, CISA, but also some of our some of the web services, Amazon, Microsoft, some of the security firms out there we need a real time reaction team, and unfortunately, we don’t have that right now.”
Gas Prices Expected to Keep Rising in Wake of Colonial Pipeline Attack
Gas prices, already close to $3 a gallon after a cyberattack on Colonial Pipeline, are expected to keep rising through the week, especially in the eastern United States.
“We’re expecting to see price increases to continue through the week, and in particular in the southeast region and in the northeast, because we are seeing directly impacted areas along the terminals of the pipeline that remain out,” Devin Gladden with the American Automobile Association (AAA) told The Epoch Times.
“And so as we see imports, deliveries from trucks, fill that gap, that may mean that higher costs will be associated with those deliveries and that is certainly causing prices to increase at the pump for consumers,” he added.
