Basically, CrowdStrike is saying that to the extent REvil *may be* involved, the security firm has previously linked that malware to Pinchy Spider — not that the JBS hack was the work of Pinchy Spider. — PolitiTweet.org

I checked with CrowdStrike directly, and what I’m told is that there was a miscommunication involving their PR agency. CrowdStrike is commenting on other public reports claiming REvil’s involvement, not making a statement of attribution. — PolitiTweet.org

Earlier today I got an email from a PR agency repping CrowdStrike that made it sound like the cybersecurity firm was publicly attributing the JBS hack to a Russian group it calls Pinchy Spider. In case it’s helpful to other reporters: It turns out that that is NOT the case. — PolitiTweet.org

At the WH brief, @PressSec says the admin has raised the topic of ransomware with Russia and it'll be a subject of the Biden-Putin summit: "We have delivered the message that responsible states do not harbor ransomware criminals... we are not going to take options off the table" — PolitiTweet.org

Some JBS workers may gain an extra Saturday shift following the cyberattack. But by then, the damage will have been done, and the extra shift will also disrupt family schedules, Gutierres told me. https://t.co/IDNA33mF2I — PolitiTweet.org

The human cost of the JBS hack: Erika Gutierres works at a beef plant in Texas. The disruption forced her to fall behind on rent, babysitting and gas. "It sounds, like, so small — 'It's two days off, get some rest.' But to me, it's the end of the world." https://t.co/IDNA33mF2I — PolitiTweet.org

The State Department confirms in its 2022 budget request it was one of the nine federal agencies “most significantly impacted by the SolarWinds attack” (the WH has balked at giving out the official list) and claims $101m of the $750m set aside by the WH for SolarWinds response https://t.co/hMfPBMAUdI — PolitiTweet.org
