Garmin is a tech company full of engineers, this is kind of a big deal. It's not even that they run a website, they build a lot of software. They most likely have a full time security team, if they don't it's a little ridiculous. It'd be interesting to know what products they use.. I work in Cybersecurity.. it's not like I've ever had the customer lists memorized but no product I've ever worked on has ever had them as a customer IIRC and at least 2 of the last 3 would have been highly relevant to Garmin. |

99% of problems posted on this forum are first world problems including probably any thread you or I started.

If I was a stock or bond holder I'd immediately want to know what security and regular audits were conducted and what they found. Once this is over I suspect heads will roll and whether they have a reporting structure that takes data security seriously. My guess based on the duration of this outage and reading the new and my own intuition is that Garmin does not. |

Considering that we are going on day 3 now, I would say that this is pretty huge.
Usually if a company like this is down for 30 minutes it's a problem. |

I give even odds that there are people at polar and wahoo that have been meeting all weekend about this, even if their online presence isn't quite so ambitious as garmin's

I work in the heavy industry/power/petrochemical business and we had a client hacked with ransomware; and though I don’t begin to understand the particulars, they were essentially told by an expert firm: under no circumstances pay the ransom; they basically canned all their hardware and started over. Took about a day and a bazzilion man hours of work. This stuff is serious

Funny I haven’t noticed the quality of their service being worse than usually.

A single point failure taking out an entire company seems mind boggling to me. I am waiting to find out what bad software they were running. Surprised that no ex-employees are blabbing about it already. |
