The ONE time in half a decade I take a trip to Seattle…

Possible cyberattack” plus “no threat actors or ransomware group has taken responsibility” sounds to me like someone fucked up and is timid about owning up.

Did someone plug in the router to the internet and got crowdstruck a bit late?

Can’t wait for the details to come out. My money is on half the systems running operating systems which are old enough to drink, along with an understaffed, underpaid security team who spends all their time chasing people opening phishing emails. And that will be coupled with management which “cares about security”. And by “care” they mean “don’t have a clue and don’t actually give a fuck”.
