At my org the security is so heavy that it's a multi-step, multi-tier fix (meaning the one Helpdesk person has to escalate, the first tier that gets it has one password but not the other, that has to go to second tier, etc.)

They announced weekend hours all weekend on Friday and given we're talking tens of thousands of potentially impacted systems, my guess is it absolutely won't be done by Monday. That doesn't necessarily mean business is dead in the water, but it's definitely more chaotic and slow moving.
