New ransomware is targeting Windows and Linux PCs with a 'unique' attack
- Corrado 6y agoThis is interesting because they are using Java. The article mentions some sort of Java Image File but I have been out of the Java world for quite a while and don't know much about it. Does it have it's own JVM? Are you safe if you don't have a JVM installed on your system?
- BruceEel 6y agoYes, jimage is relatively new but this is more about the way the ransomware attempts to evade detection. The way it gets in, according to the Blackberry article, is through vulnerable, internet-facing (or anyway, hostile-facing) RDP servers this is much less eh 'innovative'. You are (presumably) safe if you have no exposed/vulnerable RDP servers.
