We need to blow up every Dominion computer in existence.

That Trump Executive Order from 2018 now comes into play. Mind you, I do worry that this could cause a confrontation with China—one that can lead to a world war.

Every freaking 1 minute news blip, this a.m. is saying President Trump lost election challenges in courts because of "lack of evidence"(even FOX blips on conservative radio stations are saying this).

There's TONS OF EVIDENCE, the effibg courts are REFUSING to hear it.

These News blips are pure Goebbels-style propaganda (Not to mention they (MSM) didn't even show the hearings!-should have been on every channel).

The news media is THE ENEMY OF THE UNITED STATES!

Hope they go to jail for their part in the coup.😡

Our elections are 100% untrustworthy. No way Biden was elected. Talk about conspiracy theories, this is just one. The bigger one is China releasing the flu to take down Trump.

I agree. A LOT of people use this, nearly a standard, and depending on the nature of the vulnerability...

Who owns/manages Solar Winds?

FireEye, and probably others, stumbled onto it; and CISA had to look smart.

I think you are correct to worry about that.

This is not 1940, as I gather you understand well. IT and cyberfunctionality are crucial to our national security and economic well being.

Not to mention changing the results of an election.

425 of 500 fortune 500 companies use them and DOD.

This will be the third vended solution in use at my employer that's been compromised, and yes I work for a Fortune 500.

Can't wait for the regulators to walk in the door and serve us with another MRIA....

Our elites have been selling our country out to foreign interests for years, and when this election fraud was detected we were told the Dominion servers were inaccessible because they were maintained within the borders of those very same foreign interests

Microsoft, FireEye confirm SolarWinds supply chain attack: Known victims so far include the US Treasury, the US NTIA, and FireEye itself

https://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-fireeye-confirm-solarwinds-supply-chain-attack/

A hack initially corrupted a Solarwinds file, after which, that corrupted Solarwinds file had been installed on various Windows OS based machines as a part of routine updating.

The hacked file hatches, you might say, active hack commands that find certain files and deletes those certain files.

The hack tries to hide its tracks, and then force a reboot of the Windows OS based machine.

It is a cover-up.

That's unless there are stealth bombers (in the "Q" definition) in the CCP willing to take down Xi Jinping and his allies. We're going to find out that China was the real threat to our elections, not Russia.

Yep.

The United States should round up every suspected Chinese spy in this country and summarily execute them.

That's just for beginners.

The hack tries to hide its tracks, and then force a reboot of the Windows OS based machine.

If the affected Windows machine has event logging enabled and those logs are sent elsewhere, clearing the log and rebooting the machine does no good.

I can tell you factually that every single one of our Windows Desktops and Servers sends their logfiles to a secure event logging solution where those logfiles cannot be manipulated or deleted.

It doesn't take much to then filter through the events to see what's happened/happening with any of our Windows (and Linux) serers, of which there are about 16,000 total.
