About this course:
More than 230,000 computers in over 150 countries were hit by the recent cyberattack using a new type of ransomware called WannaCry, also called WannaCrypt0r, WeCry, or WannaCrypt. This ransomware computer worm is still ongoing and targeting the Microsoft Windows operating system. It encrypts data and demands ransom payment from victims. Only the attackers possess the private key for decrypting your files. From the initially attacked system it rapidly spreads to random computers on the internet and the network by exploiting vulnerabilities in the Windows Server Message Block (SMB) file sharing protocol.
