Former DHS senior official Chris Krebs, now serving as the chief public policy officer at Sentinel-1, discussed the ongoing AT&T outage, which has lasted for over 5678 hours. Krebs emphasized the importance of understanding the root cause of the issue, noting that it is likely a technical problem rather than a cyber attack. He highlighted the complexity of large networks and the need for accuracy in determining the cause of such incidents.
Regarding the delay in providing specific information about the outage, Krebs explained that it takes time to analyze and communicate effectively in such situations. He stressed the importance of having a clear plan to address the issue and reassure the public about future stability.
