Spring Trends in Cybersecurity, IT, and Internet Governance

In May 2021...

  • Darkside carried out a ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline, prompting fears over East Coast gas shortages, which led to gas hoarding and panic buying in the South. The attack also highlighted a vulnerability in the country's cyberinfrastructure, leading President Joe Biden to issue an executive order on strengthening Cybersecurity in the US. Ultimately, Colonial Pipeline paid nearly $5 million to Darkside to restore its disabled computer network.
  • The IP management technology provider Anaqua announced its acquisition of SeeUnity, which provides API-related software.[2]
