lol nice spate of ransomware attacks, who could have predicted this
Just yesterday a large private sector (administrative) medical services company got hit, one of their employees told me they were all off work because the systems were down after the attack. Expect more of this in the near future. America may have big ship and bitchin' high explosive weapon, but our networks are a hell of a weak point for state actors and criminals to attack. Ten or fifteen years ago most non-tech related enterprises probably had little to worry about from these cyberattacks, but with the massive consolidation of everything onto online systems, and the new (profit motivated- must...grow... GDP!) interest in augmenting every last real-world process with muh internet, this problem is only going to get worse.
