US tech firm hit by REvil ransomware attack is NOT able to bring its service online after CEO vowed it would be back within 'hours'

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] The U.S. software firm hit by a REvil ransomware attack that crippled hundreds of companies worldwide has failed to bring its services online after discovering an 'issue' that delayed the redeployment.

Kaseya, the Miami-based company at the center of the hack, said in an alert on Tuesday night that 'an issue was discovered that has blocked the release' of its key service, which provides system monitoring and management for IT service providers.

'We apologize for the delay and R&D and operations are continuing to work around the clock to resolve this issue and restore service,' the company added, saying another status update would be issued on Wednesday morning.

The delay in the planned deployment came as another embarrassment to the company, soon after CEO Fred Voccola vowed in a video message that service would be restored 'in the coming hours'.

#2 Again I'll say it's odd that this never happened while Trump was President.
