JBoss Enterprise Software Can Spread Ransomware
Bitcoinist_Security Ransomware Cisco JBoss
There is no denying Bitcoin ransomware has become one of the most severe threats computer users have faced in quite some time. To make matters even worse, a lot of servers are running vulnerable – and outdated – software, which gives hackers a ton of security vulnerabilities they can exploit in the future.
Over 2,000 of these servers have already been taken over by hackers, who now exert full control over the machines. As one would come to expect from such an event, any hacker-controlled web server can be infected with ransomware at any given time. But that is not the most worrying part just yet.
