Coming up today, let’s call this week’s episode a Viewers Choice episode, given so many of you reached out to me to cover it. This week, I will make sense of the JBS Holdings Hack.

I’ve always said that the 2016 Crash Override hack. Which, for those not familiar, was the successful infiltration, and shut down, of Kiev’s electrical grid in the dead of a frigid Ukranian winter. I’ve always said that the 2016 Crash Override hack. It wasn’t the main event. It was a preview of what was to come.

What we are seeing with the hacks of both the Colonial Pipeline and JBS Holdings is a holus bolus full frontal attack on critical infrastructure globally, with the aim of: a) making hackers money; and b) demonstrating the fragility, or perhaps more accurately, the vulnerability, of critical infrastructure.

This is Fight Club, except it’s not fiction.
