Kwa muda wa siku 3 kuna watu wamefanya mashambulizi makubwa ya kuvuruga files nyingi kwenye computers ya makampuni na taasisi nyingi za kiserikali sehemu nyingi duniani.
Leo hao wahalifu wamewatumia hao walioharibiwa na ambao hawajaharibiwa madai ya kupewa pesa ili waache kuharibu hizo computers. Baadhi ya makampuni kama NHS ya UK, Renault, FedEx, Telefonica miundo ya mitandao ya computers zao zimeharibiwa.
Ningependa mtaalamu yeyote wa masuala haya anifahamishe hizo pesa za malipo zitalipwaje kwani wakitumia benki au kupokea mojamoja itakuwa rahisi kukamatwa.
Kwa kosa hili sehemu nyingi huwa ni kifungo cha miaka mingi jela.

Global ‘ransomware’ attack slows; hackers hit hospitals for cash
LONDON (AP) — A global “ransomware” attack, unprecedented in scale, had technicians scrambling to restore Britain’s crippled hospital network Saturday and secure the computers that run factories, banks, government agencies and transport systems in many other nations.
The worldwide cyberextortion attack is so unprecedented, in fact, that Microsoft quickly changed its policy, announcing security fixes available for free for the older Windows systems still used by millions of individuals and smaller businesses.
After an emergency government meeting Saturday in London, Britain’s home secretary said one in five of 248 National Health Service groups had been hit. The onslaught forced hospitals to cancel or delay treatments for thousands of patients, even some with serious aliments like cancer.
Home Secretary Amber Rudd said 48 NHS trusts were affected and all but six were now back to normal. The U.K.’s National Cyber Security Center said it is “working round the clock” to restore vital health services.
