President Joe Biden says the Russian government was not behind the Colonial Pipeline attack. Biden declined to comment on a Bloomberg News report that the company paid the attackers a nearly $5 million ransom. The White House and FBI said Colonial Pipeline attackers used DarkSide ransomware. 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, but Biden offered scant details about the conversation with Russia. The company restarted operations on Wednesday.”]
