Incident summary
HALLIBURTON COAug 2024
$35M est.
Spent responding & recovering
Direct expense
Halliburton pulled its own applications offline as a precaution, and in doing so showed how thin the wall was between corporate IT and oilfield operations: with production planning and shipment tracking down, customers could not cut a purchase order. Data left the building, though no count of the people behind the records ever followed. Reporting ties the intrusion to RansomHub, and the $35 million booked was the price of a boundary that lived mostly on paper.
