The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) recently published a document alerting of a significant cyberattack that compromises “U.S. government agencies, critical infrastructure entities, and private sector organizations.”
According to A.P., the hack, which an unnamed official dubbed “the worst hacking case in the history of America,” was far-reaching, “compromising” Federal agencies and “critical infrastructure”.
National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) was also reportedly affected. Politico is reporting “sources directly familiar with the matter” as stating: “The Energy Department and National Nuclear Security Administration, which maintains the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile, have evidence that hackers accessed their networks as part of an extensive espionage operation that has affected at least half a dozen federal agencies.”
For those following the World Economic Forum, the cyberattack that we are currently witnessing is not all that shocking. That is because WEF has been strongly cautioning the world that the next “crisis” would be dealing with cybersecurity.
In a Round Table on “The Great Reset in Bible Prophecy” late last month with Jan Markell and Amir Tsarfati, Pastor Barry Stagner discussed the WEF’s clear and open dialogue of a future large-scale cybersecurity breach.“In other words,” Pastor Barry continued, “there is coming a cyberattack, and media outlets are reporting it all over the world that there have been countless cyber threats on the power grids of different countries, including the united states. Every single day, thousands of attacks have been thwarted on the power grid in the U.S.”
“They’re already pitching this. They’re already greasing the skids, so to speak, preparing us. That the next wave is coming, and it’s going to be far worse than this wave, and it’s going to come in the form of a cybersecurity breach,” he reiterated.
The comments Barry Stagner was referencing came from Klaus Schwab, who warned of a so-called “cyber pandemic” back in July:
“We all know but still pay insufficient attention to the frightening scenario of a comprehensive cyberattack, which would bring to a complete halt the power supply, transportation, hospital services, our society as a whole. The COVID-19 crisis would be seen, in this respect, as a small disturbance in comparison to a major cyberattack… It is important to use the COVID-19 crisis as a timely opportunity to reflect on the lessons cybersecurity community can draw and improve our preparedness for a potential cyber pandemic.”
In June, WEF also published an article titled, “What the COVID-19 pandemic teaches us about cybersecurity – and how to prepare for the inevitable global cyberattack” [emphasis added].
In this article, they urge the public that what they should really fear is a “COVID-like incident” they call “cyber-COVID”:
We should prepare for a COVID-like global cyber pandemic that will spread faster and further than a biological virus, with an equal or greater economic impact…
Our “new normal” isn’t COVID-19 itself – it’s COVID-like incidents.
And a cyber pandemic is probably as inevitable as a future disease pandemic. The time to start thinking about the response is – as always – yesterday.
If cyber-COVID mirrored the pathology of the novel Coronavirus, 30% of infected systems would be asymptomatic and spread the virus, while half would continue functioning with performance severely degraded – the digital equivalent of being in bed for a week. Meanwhile 15% would be “wiped” with total data loss, requiring a complete system reinstall. Finally, 5% would be “bricked” – rendering the device itself inoperable.
The end result: millions of devices would be taken offline in a matter of days.
The only way to stop the exponential propagation of cyber-COVID would be to fully disconnect all vulnerable devices from one another and the internet to avoid infection. The whole world could experience cyber lockdown until a digital vaccine was developed. All business communication and data transfers would be blocked. Social contact would be reduced to people contactable by in-person visits, copper landline, snail-mail or short-wave radio.
The WEF goes on to tout their Centre for Cybersecurity as an “example of an organization addressing systemic cybersecurity challenges and improving digital trust across institutions, businesses, and individuals.”The list of the Centre of Cybersecurity’s partners includes Microsoft, Mastercard, IBM, The Bank of America, Huawei, PayPal, Oxford, Amazon, and many more.
