51: Ransomware & IoT

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #51 where we have a chat about all things IoT over a cup of coffee or two with some of the industry's leading business minds, thought leaders and technologists in a totally unscripted, organic format. Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter. 

In this installment, we talk about the ransomware attack that took down Colonial Pipeline's operations for six days resulting in a gasoline panic that grounded airplane and resulted in hour long waits for gas all across the eastern portion of the United States. Was this an IoT disaster or something else. We delve into the possibilities of what could have brought about a massive disruption in our gasoline supply chain.
