Will Garmin pay $10m to end outage?
- jeffbee 6y agoHow many well-known production security measures were considered and rejected on grounds of cost before Garmin got to this point?
- sna1l 6y agoThis is all based off of rumors/employee tweets, but it seems plausible enough, given the length of the downtime.
- aurizon 6y agoHas this attack group been in position for a long time, so they have had time to deal with all levels of backup by poisoning them in transit, so Garmin has no viable recovery tools? One would think that that all modern data security plans have locked and unchangeable archived backups - that said, if even those have been discovered and quietly encrypted in such a way that they looked ok to monitoring systems - until the trigger was pulled? A complex problem. Garmin must pay or rebuild all they have created in many areas? At this point it becomes an economic decision = pay and live to fight another day...
