Ransomware cyberattack
POPULARITY
In the latest Risk Roundtable, Andy, Jen, and Dave talk about the war in Ukraine and what it means for preparedness. Sometimes you just have to call a spade a spade and not allow personal, political or other bias to affect your organization's analysis or preparedness. While Andy and Dave throw flags on their previous predictions, Jen brings us back to reality and talks about being aware, being prepared, and reminds “don't panic.” Andy then drills down on bias and how it can have an impact on organizations. During the Roulette Round, Jen talked about CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, vulnerabilities, and patching (while Dave ensured it wasn't his Windows 2000 computer exposure that Jen was referring to…), then Dave brought up the importance of disaster preparedness in light of spring and summer severe weather events. Andy wrapped things up with a quick talk about the “People's Convoy” and the battle of the Washington, D.C. Beltway! The pod wraps up with three questions – from COVID predictions, to Andy's confusion about when seasons start, to Batman. Link mentioned in the pod include: CISA's Shields Up webpage: https://www.cisa.gov/shields-up CISA: Russia Cyber Threat Overview and Advisories. https://www.cisa.gov/uscert/russia#russian And our post on the Gate 15 blog from 03 March, Russian Cybersecurity Threats: 5 Asks from the FBI: https://gate15.global/russian-cybersecurity-threats-5-asks-from-the-fbi/ Bridget Johnson on Twitter, and at Homeland Security Today (HS Today) CISA Adds 95 Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog (03 Mar 22): https://www.cisa.gov/uscert/ncas/current-activity/2022/03/03/cisa-adds-95-known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog WaterISAC: Update (March 3, 2021) – 95 Added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog (03 Mar 22): https://www.waterisac.org/portal/cisa's-known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog Microsoft: Customer Guidance for WannaCrypt attacks (12 May 17): https://msrc-blog.microsoft.com/2017/05/12/customer-guidance-for-wannacrypt-attacks/ ZDNet Ransomware attack: Hospitals still struggling in aftermath of WannaCrypt's rampage (15 May 17): https://www.zdnet.com/article/ransomware-attack-hospitals-still-struggling-in-aftermath-of-wannacrypts-rampage/
A cybersecurity scare about ransomware called "WannaCrypt" has been widely spammed out. This one, fortunately, is a scam - there isn't any malware - but the attack that the crooks describe could, in theory, be pulled off. Matt Boddy and Paul Ducklin investigate, and explain what to do.
This week our round table discussion focuses on another malicious attack similar to the WannaCrypt Ransomware in May, why patches are not being applied even after WannaCrypt, and work Microsoft is doing in the upcoming Fall Creators Update to further enhance security for both enterprise and consumer users.There is no interview segment in this episode because we have tweaked the format to alternate episodes between a round table discussion and an interview. This will allow us to keep the show under 30 minutes without making each segment seem too brief for a good discussion/interview. Thanks for tuning in and be sure to share our show with your friends and colleagues.

Jeff Harmon offers advice on how photographers can defend themselves from ransomware like WannaCry (aka Wanna Decrypter and WannaCrypt) through following 3 primary computing habits: 1) Keep your computer updated. Only install software you went out to get, keep all of the software on your computer updated, if you don’t need software then get rid of it. 2) Do NOT ...

It's More Than Just A Cyber Attack! On the morning of Fri., May 12th, 2017, an unprecedented â??â??ransomwareâ??â?? cyber attack struck tens of thousands of victims in 150 countries. WannaCry, the ransomware program, also known as WannaCrypt, WanaCrypt0r 2.0, Wanna Decryptor, and others similar, began with infecting one computer, until infecting all others in a local area network (LAN). The ransomware encrypts the infected computer's hard disk drive, then attempts to gain access so it can further spread on random computers connected to the internet via TCP port 445. Organizations affected and/or involved include the FedEx (U.S.), National Health Service hospitals in the UK, Nissan Motor Manufacturing UK in Tyne and Wear, Renault, Russia's Ministry of Internal Affairs, Russian Railways and MegaFon, Romania's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Telenor Hungary, German railway company Deutsche Bahn, Telefónica and several other large companies in Spain, several parts of the European Union, Brazil's São Paulo Court of Justice and Vivo, China's PetroChina and Public Security Bureaus, India's Andhra Pradesh Police, Indonesia's Dharmais and Harapan Kita hospital, and many others. However, this "attack" also affected ATMs in China, and major banks all over the world. This is especially a "red flag," considering how the majority of mainstream media news outlets are subliminally telling us how these cyber attacks could occur again, and the detrimental consequences. According to a Washington Times report back on September 13th, 2011, Army Gen. Keith Alexander, who was the former commander of the U.S. Cyber Command and former Director of the National Security Agency (NSA), has stated that future computer-based combat likely will involve electronic strikes that cause widespread power outages and even physical destruction of thousand-ton machines. And, with the nationwide power outage affecting Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York last month, it's only a matter of time until the "BIG ONE" occurs... Another report alludes to the same thing. In their September 2011 issue on cyber intelligence, The Intelligence and National Security Alliance (INSA) has warned how risks from cyber "threats" and "attacks" even include disruption of America's telecommunications â?? also known as an EMP. Coincidentally enough, in 2014 the executive director of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security told Congress that EMPs pose â??existential threats that could kill 9 of 10 Americans through starvation, disease, and societal collapse.â?? Could This All Be Leading Up To Something? THE TRUTH REVEALED!!! NOW IS THE TIME TO PREPARE! PLEASE SEEK YAHUAH AND HIS TRUE SON YAHUSHA NOW â?? WHILE THE LIGHTS ARE STILL ON!!!!!!! ALSO SEE â??

A computer virus called Wannacrypt, or WannaCry, infected thousands of computers around the globe on Friday. It’s a piece of self-replicating ransomware, which makes users pay money to decrypt their files. If they don’t pay up, the files will be deleted within a week. The developers of the MP3, Fraunhofer IIS, ended its licensing program for the audio format after two decades (it was invented in 1993). So basically software makers who have programs that make MP3s don’t have to pay a license fee to use the format
Today's news is filled with the WannaCry/WannaCrypt ransomware and, ahem, FUD. On this special edition of Security Nation, host Kyle Flaherty sits down with Josh Feinblum, VP of information security at Rapid7, to break down the noise and discuss what happened, what is still happening now, why folks need to take this seriously, and the personal decision that is paying the ransom. It's during these moments that the infosec community can really come together to help each other out. Join Josh and Kyle as they discuss that, as well as: Patching is hard, but blaming people for not patching is a cheap shot. The challenges inherent in the IT and security relationship, and how to help them out. FUD is avoidable during times like this, but it's also critical to understand the severity of what happened here. Is this the second variant of this attack, and will we see more (spoiler alert: yes). Security Nation is a podcast dedicated to covering all things infosec – from what’s making headlines to practical tips for organizations looking to improve their own security programs. Host Kyle Flaherty (@KyleFlaherty) has been knee-deep in the security sector for nearly two decades. At Rapid7 he leads a team of technical marketers with the mission of providing impactful content that helps security professionals do their jobs.
