I'm still trying to decide if its like the Equifax one and its back to business as usual in months or if they lose credibility entirely. Depends how locked in their customers are.
- easterncalculus 6y agoSince Equifax is one of three credit reporting agencies it's basically invincible. Solarwinds doesn't really have that kind of protection from the US government. Especially not since this has been directly affecting them.
- elliekelly 6y agoI don’t disagree but what is the government’s alternative here? I just don’t see them being able to quickly pull off such a massive change in vendors if Solarwinds goes under. They’re like the government contract equivalent of “too big to fail”.
- boringg 6y agoGood point. The fact that Equifax is back to business is so disappointing - one would have hoped that the industry would get an overhaul. I agree with another commentator that the market structure is fundamentally different though so it seems, on the surface, that this could sink the ship.
