this is seen it and here are the stories
that matter right now believe it or not
it only took one victim in Ukraine to
infect computers around the world with
the Goldeneye ransomware virus
what makes Goldeneye so dangerous is
that it can spread across a computer
network and infect machines that weren't
necessarily duped by it it's now easier
than ever for even the most amateur of
criminals to launch these types of
attacks thanks to a leaked NSA exploit
called eternal blue
unfortunately the malware is able to
encrypt some machines that have been
fully patched with the latest security
updates which allowed golden-eyed to
permeate private VPN networks if you're
worried about protecting yourself from
the variants of malware that's been
making recent headlines you can manually
download the latest security patches to
patch the exploited parts of Windows
never open email attachments you're not
sure of and always err on the side of
caution if something looks shady you can
stay up to date with the latest by
downloading the CNET tech today app in
the Apple or Google Play Store
