Worldwide Cyber Attack

Massive attack on computer systems around the world asking for Ransom.

Apparently the systems attacked were ones that did not implement their Microsoft security updates . If things went as they should there would be an awful lot of vacant posts coming up shortly in the computer sections of the NHS (and other affected organizations). But things do not go as they should

I read that Microsoft were charged with the Job of keeping the NHS computers clean, I understand that this contract ran out in 2015.

According to the BBC. More Ransomware attacks are likely on Monday.

They should have kept up to date with there microsoft accounts

At least they never had the expected attacks today.

On sky news they were saying it could have come from a group called the lazerus group ,thought to be something to do with north korea.

That wouldn't surprise me Jo. Kim De Jong Un is a complete lunatic, he probably sponsors them.

That man is dangerous ,he seems to think he is bullet proof,that man could start ww3 and not know he had done it.

My own opinion trump would love an excuse to have a go at him ,he would wipe him of the face of the earth if he had his way.
