Back in the 90's, I heard that the Rangers do not get along with the FIB.

Had something to do with Waco.

This sounds bogus to me

Another “raid”

Just like the one in Germany that turned out to be bogus as well

Can anyone ever report on real news? Just the facts, no BS no booms no boomshells, no political bents or point of view, just the real news?

Communications at the U.S. Treasury and Commerce Departments were reportedly compromised by a supply chain attack on SolarWinds, a security vendor that helps the federal government and a range of Fortune 500 companies monitor the health of their IT networks. Given the breadth of the company’s customer base, experts say the incident may be just the first of many such disclosures.

According to a Reuters story, hackers believed to be working for Russia have been monitoring internal email traffic at the U.S. Treasury and Commerce departments. Reuters reports the attackers were able to surreptitiously tamper with updates released by SolarWinds for its Orion platform, a suite of network management tools.

In a security advisory, Austin, Texas based SolarWinds acknowledged its systems “experienced a highly sophisticated, manual supply chain attack on SolarWinds Orion Platform software builds for versions 2019.4 HF 5 through 2020.2.1, released between March 2020 and June 2020.”

In response to the intrusions at Treasury and Commerce, the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) took the unusual step of issuing an emergency directive ordering all federal agencies to immediately disconnect the affected Orion products from their networks.

“Treat all hosts monitored by the SolarWinds Orion monitoring software as compromised by threat actors and assume that further persistence mechanisms have been deployed,” CISA advised.

My cynicism radar is state-of-the-art.

This looks like the Goodfellas visiting all the neighborhood businesses promising smooth sailing for $$$ per month.

FBI would have done the paperwork and took credit.

So, what happens when the FIB, a baseball team and some marshalls show up? Nothing! Absolutely nothing!

This is the typical response from top down agencies. Back in 2003 while in Brussels as a sys adm, I had the only web server worldwide not knocked off line by a chicom virus. I did my job and applied MS patches immediately as was permitted in the DISA Cloud. No good deed goes unrewarded, though, because Heidelberg sent their Signal Corps experts to interview and then they took possession of my machine, ran tests for three days collecting data - and they left me a web server that was destroyed so I had reload the entire web server after they left so the contracting office could conduct operations.

This storey is being covered by the Austin American-Statesman as well:

Seems to be connected to the Treasury Department breach.

Does SolarWinds have anything to do with the November election?

Ok I’m waiting for the “Breaking News” that black helicopters are on their way to rescue us all.
