WannaCry

The WannaCry ransomware attack was a worldwide cyberattack in May 2017 by the WannaCry ransomware cryptoworm, which targeted computers running the Microsoft Windows operating system by encrypting data and demanding ransom payments in the Bitcoin cryptocurrency. It propagated by using EternalBlue, an exploit developed by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) for Windows systems. EternalBlue was stolen and leaked by a group called The Shadow Brokers a month prior to the attack. While Microsoft had released patches previously to close the exploit, much of WannaCry's spread was from organizations that had not applied these, or were using older Windows systems that were past their end-of-life.---------------------------------------------------------- WannaCry is the first in a 5 part of our VIRUS series.  ----------------------------------------------------------HYPR CLOTH® v8 is ethically sourced, produced and printed in Southern California. Soft Combed + 95% Ringspun enzyme was
