When will people start investing in proper infosec implementation/training for personnel? You'd think that the last couple of years would've been functioned as a giant flashing warning sign, that you're going to get your poo poo pushed in if you don't invest in cybersecurity. That goes doubly for loving HOSPITALS :argh:

I just hope no one ends up dying over this.

I mean yeah, this is literally their job: fraud. Doesn't mean it's a government. Now, the Russian government does coerce/partner with the crime syndicates in Russia for stuff, but I doubt this is one of those instances.

Yep!

According to CCN-CERT, that flaw is MS17-010, a vulnerability in the Windows Server Message Block (SMB) service, which Windows computers rely upon to share files and printers across a local network. Malware that exploits SMB flaws could be extremely dangerous inside of corporate networks because the file-sharing component may help the ransomware spread rapidly from one infected machine to another.

My stepdad got hit with locker poo poo like that 2 or 3 times. He even tried to pay it with a credit card.

Each time.

I had to clean all that poo poo up and put ad/script blocking poo poo on his computer and tell him DO NOT OPEN INTERNET EXPLORER EVER and stop clicking on every god damned thing you see. He didn't even go to questionable sites. Just stuff for cars, contractor stuff, and banks. Also had him get new credit cards because god drat what was he thinking.

I hope we start labeling hackers as terrorists and giving them the jail time or drone visits they deserve. Because there isn't really any other way to describe a cyber attack on a hospital demanding ransom other than terrorism.
