WASHINGTON, May 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ Getting back online after a ransomware attack is a painstaking process that takes time, warns cyber discovery expert Michael Sarlo, Chief Innovation Officer and President of Global Investigations at HaystackID. This comes as Colonial Pipeline slowly brings its operations back online after suffering the largest pipeline hack in history and the most significant attack on a piece of critical national infrastructure. All of Colonial s data and networking equipment must be poured over to determine the scope and depth of what was exfiltrated, encrypted, or corrupted. That means we are talking about potentially terabytes of data– and that takes time, said Sarlo.
