Make it make sense... The Colonial Pipeline Crisis
On this week’s episode, a much requested Make It Make Sense: the Colonial Pipeline crisis.
On May 7 2021, the Colonial Pipeline, a fuel pipeline operating out of Houston, Texas, and serving 45% of the US east coast, was shut down, due to hackers infiltrating its systems and impacting equipment critical to the operation of the pipeline.
The resultant impacts – everything from fuel shortages to flight disruptions to increased hacking activity (industry agnostic) – were a stark reminder of the criticality of infrastructure in our day to day lives. And how quickly we fall apart when infrastructure is compromised.
The Colonial Pipeline crisis is a story where all the warnings signs were there, and yet the risk still manifested. On today’s episode, I’ll take you through what happened. The impacts. How it was resolved. And I will bring you the lessons learned. Lessons not just for our organizations, but lessons for us as humans.
