Oddly explosive headline, considering: > It is not clear what specific companies have been affected - a Kaseya representative contacted by the BBC declined to give details. So why "colossal"? > "This is a colossal and devastating supply chain attack," Huntress Labs' senior security researcher John Hammond said in an email to Reuters news agency. The BBC is going with "colossal" in their headline simply because the guy who discovered the incident said so?

The BBC headline uses 'colossal' in quotation marks. So yes, it's a quote.
