to Russian hackers, though exact identities and origins remain unclear. Putin denied speculation that Russia was behind the pipeline attack that caused gas shortages up and down the East Coast for several days until the energy company paid a ransom of some $4 million.Antani added that there are certain activities that would cross the threshold of war, such as a cyberattack against a health care or transportation system that would result in loss of life.
If Russia synchronizes already high gas prices with a cyberattack similar to the one against Colonial Pipeline, for example, Americans would be severely inconvenienced with record-high gas prices.

Such an attack would cause so much "internal strife and distraction" that it could deflect some attention off of Russia and toward U.S. internal conflict, Antani said.U.S. entities should be actively boosting their cyber defenses and testing their systems so that they are prepared in the event of a cyberattack from a foreign adversary, similar to protecting the perimeter of a property under the threat of attack, according to Antani.
He also encourages partnerships between the public and private sector in "collaborating at an operational level, whether it's sharing threat intelligence, sharing fix actions or patch recommendations, or even sharing code and alerts and so on."
