A top U.S. official is warning that recent major ransomware attacks against the United States under President Joe Biden are likely to continue as the attackers become "More brazen."
Era said he expects to "Continue to see" the ransomware attacks happen and he urged companies not to pay the ransoms, which is the U.S. government's official position.
Major ransomware attacks have occurred recently against companies in the oil and gas industry, the insurance industry, the transportation industry, and the meat industry.
The ransomware attacks followed a massive cyberattack against the U.S., again believed to be from Russia, that infiltrated more than 250 federal agencies.
When a reporter asked her why these attacks were seemingly increasing under Biden, she mocked the reporter by saying he should go ask the criminals in Russia.
REPORTER: "Do you think Putin is testing you" after latest Russian ransomware attack?
"If President Biden does not confront Vladimir Putin about the ransomware groups perpetrating from within Russia, he will be failing in his duty to protect the United States from these types of attacks."
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
