- brador 11y agoNot just unlicensed, possibly from a warez site, possibly bringing trojans and keyloggers into the network. I'd suggest CERN run a deep scan and begin backing up data and formatting systems. If they think 30k is bad, imagine the bitcoin bill for a cryptlocker key to the entire CERN dataset.
- JupiterMoon 11y agoOne would assume that they have an adequate back up system in place such that a cryptolocker type attack would be simply negated.
