Remember these choice quotes from Cyberpolygon 2020?
(Hear them in video here: iceagefarmer.com )
Jeremy Jurgens, WEF Managing Director:
“I believe that there will be another crisis. It will be more significant. It will be faster than what we’ve seen with COVID. The impact will be greater, and as a result the economic and social implications will be even more significant.”
Klaus Schwab:
“We all know, but still pay insufficient attention, to the frightening scenario of a comprehensive cyber attack could bring a complete halt to the power supply, transportation, hospital services, our society as a whole. The COVID-19 crisis would be seen in this respect as a small disturbance in comparison to a major cyberattack."
There is a looming cyberattack on supply chains & our food supply. Prepare.

Cyberattack on critical pipeline freezes deliveries to U.S. East Coast
[fuel prices set to explode]
The main fuel supply line to the U.S. East Coast was shut down on Friday after the pipeline's operator was hit by what is believed to be the largest successful cyberattack on oil infrastructure in the country's history.
The attack on the Colonial Pipeline, which runs 5,500 miles and provides nearly half the fuel used on the East Coast, affected some of the company’s IT systems. Colonial said in a statement late Friday that it has engaged an unidentified third-party cybersecurity firm to investigate the incident, and has contacted law enforcement and other federal agencies.
The attack presents a major test for how the Biden administration will respond to cyber attacks on critical infrastructure at a time when hackers are increasingly targeting essential utility services. The outage, depending on its duration and who is found to be behind it, could send fuel prices in the southeastern U.S. above $3 a gallon, market analysts said.
"I’m unaware anything approaching this magnitude in the U.S.," said Bob McNally, president of energy consultancy Rapidan Energy, who served on the National Security Council during the George W. Bush administration. "In the U.S., this is a new escalation, a much more important attack on a vital piece of infrastructure."
