Could a 'Leave the World Behind' style cyberattack cause chaos in real life?

In the film "Leave the World Behind," an unknown entity orchestrates a cyberattack that shuts down communication and transportation across the US to destabilize the country. However, cybersecurity experts argue that such a sophisticated and large-scale attack is highly unlikely to happen in real life due to the difficulty of coordination and execution. While localized disruptions in cellphone networks or navigation systems may be possible, a nationwide attack of this magnitude is considered improbable. Additionally, the cost-effectiveness of such an operation is debatable, as finding vulnerabilities across multiple sectors would require extensive reconnaissance and resources.

UnitedHealth Group, the largest health insurer in the United States, is expected to take several months to recover from a cyberattack that targeted its Change Healthcare unit. The breach, carried out by a hacking group called ALPHV, has caused significant disruption to UnitedHealth's operations and highlighted vulnerabilities in the healthcare sector's cybersecurity infrastructure. While UnitedHealth has not provided a recovery timeline, experts believe it could be quite far off, given the extent of the disruption. Similar breaches in other industries have taken months to fully recover from, with substantial financial losses incurred. ALPHV, known for its persistent and difficult negotiations, may cause further damage before being potentially disrupted by law enforcement.
