I guess I need more coffee. I can’t absorb what this article is really saying. It seems to jump around all over the place.

I think if they had all of the answers, it wouldn’t be News.

If it points at Democrats, they won’t even talk about it.

I view any Federal law enforcement hopefully, at this point.

Its not you.
This is very complex and very hard to grasp even for professional security people.

Here is some help from one of my go-to guys on Youtube.

SolarWinds and Dominion

A March 24, 2020 hack initially corrupted a Solarwinds file (SolarWinds.Orion.Core.BusinessLayer.dll), after which, that corrupted Solarwinds file had/has been installed on various Windows OS based machines as a part of routine patching / updating.

The hacked file hatches, you might say, active 'Supported' 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.
