Biden declined to comment on a Bloomberg News report that the company paid the attackers a nearly $5 million ransom. The attack temporarily disrupted the company’s ability to deliver petroleum products to a large swath of the East Coast. The Russian government earlier this week denied any connection to the attack. The White House and the FBI said the Colonial pipeline attackers used DarkSide ransomware. The company has not revealed details about the attack, including whether it was in contact with attackers.”]
