The group of hackers behind the network attack of America’s largest oil pipeline operator Colonial Pipeline has apologized and confirmed that they did not intentionally interrupt the fuel supply.

Accordingly, on the group’s website, DarkSide confirmed that it never intended to interrupt the US fuel supply when attacking the network of the Colonial Pipeline company, headquartered in Georgia, USA. The group also said that it will carefully examine its goals in the future, while emphasizing that the group is not affiliated with any governments when the cyber attack takes place because the group is always acting alone. DarkSide wrote on the website: “We are a non-political organization. We are not tied to a government. Our goal is to make money, not to put society in a difficult situation like it is today. in”. “From today, we will carefully examine each company that our partners want to attack to avoid future consequences,” the DarkSide team stressed. The partners the group refers to are “affiliates” of the group, DarkSide said. This group of hackers acts as a company that specializes in providing “hacking services” and is not directly involved in cyber attacks on companies or governments. The team will develop malware for the cyber attacks and negotiate the ransom with the victim, at the request of their partner. One source believes that DarkSide will receive 20-30% of the ransom for its services.
