Several companies worldwide were hit by new ransomware software. Companies including drug maker Merck, international shipping company Maersk, law firm DLA Piper, UK advertising firm WPP, and snack food maker Mondelez International were among the companies hit by this software. Based on the latest report from one security company around 12,000 computer are already infected by this ransomware.
Based on the latest investigation of some researchers, PetyaWrap as they called it it uses a cocktail of potent techniques to break into a network and spread from computer to computer.
Personal note on this issue companies should strengthen Data Privacy and Security to avoid monetary and credibility damage. Orient company resources to the risk it may bring to the business once affected.
It's crazy what they're doing these days.
