The 1988-2017 Global cyber-warfare incident records index

The attackers'  plans
A cyber-attack is any type of offensive maneuver employed by nation-states, individuals, groups, or organizations that targets computer information systems.

They try to take over online devices and either hack, zombiefyed, ransom lock or otherwise take them over. Zombiefyed stuff can also be used to spew erroneous messages on line to swamp out and collapse sites and ISPs.

The October 2016 denile of service (DDOS) attack was directed against a major internet host: New Hampshire-based Dyn Inc. badly disrupting traffic to and from major internet services including Twitter, Spotify and Amazon.

National modus operandi

 * 17) Organised crime- Ransomwere, steeling data, virusing, DDOS attacks, zombifying computers, locking computers, destroying computers and finding stuff to use for blackmailing.

November 2, 1988 Morris worm
The Morris worm or Internet worm of November 2, 1988 was one of the first computer worms distributed via the Internet. It was the first to gain significant mainstream media attention. It also resulted in the first felony conviction in the US under the 1986 Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. It was written by a graduate student at Cornell University, Robert Tappan Morris, and launched on November 2, 1988 from the computer systems of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

1989 AIDS trojan horse virus attack
Not to be confused with the human, cat and\or monkey AIDS virus.

AIDS, also known as Aids Info Disk or PC Cyborg Trojan, is a trojan horse that replaces the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, which would then be used by AIDS to count the number of times the computer has booted. Once this boot count reaches 90, AIDS hides directories and encrypts the names of all files on drive C: (rendering the system unusable), at which time the user is asked to 'renew the license' and contact PC Cyborg Corporation for payment (which would involve sending 189 US$ to a post office box in Panama). There exists more than one version of AIDS, and at least one version does not wait to munge drive C:, but will hide directories and encrypt file names upon the first boot after AIDS is installed

1990 AIDS II computer virus

 * Not to be confused with the human, cat, dog and\or monkey AIDS virus.

AIDS II is a computer virus written in Turbo Pascal 3.01a which overwrites COM files. AIDS is the first virus known to exploit the MS-DOS "corresponding file" vulnerability. In MS-DOS, if both foo.com and foo.exe exist, then foo.com will always be executed first. Thus, by creating infected com files, AIDS code will always be executed before the intended exe code.

Early SQL injections
The first public discussions of SQL injection started appearing around 1998; for example, a 1998 article in Phrack Magazine.

March 26, 1999 Melissa virus
Around March 26, 1999 Melissa was put in the wild by David L. Smith of Aberdeen Township, New Jersey. (The virus itself was credited to Kwyjibo, who was shown to be macrovirus writers VicodinES and ALT-F11 by comparing MS Word documents with the same globally unique identifier—this method was also used to trace the virus back to Smith.) On December 10, 1999 Smith pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 10 years, serving 20 months, and was fined US $5,000. The arrest was the result of a collaborative effort involving (amongst others) the FBI, the New Jersey State Police, Monmouth Internet and a Swedish computer scientist. David L. Smith was accused of causing $80 million worth of damages by disrupting personal computers and computer networks in business and government.

5th of May 2000 ILOVEYOU virus
ILOVEYOU, sometimes referred to as Love Bug or Love Letter, was a computer worm that attacked tens of millions of Windows personal computers on and after 5 May 2000 local time in the Philippines when it started spreading as an email message with the subject line "ILOVEYOU" and the attachment "LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.txt.vbs". The latter file extension (in this case, 'VBS' – a type of interpreted file) was most often hidden by default on Windows computers of the time, leading unwitting users to think it was a normal text file. Opening the attachment activated the Visual Basic script. The worm did damage on the local machine, overwriting random types of files (including Office files, image files, and audio files; however after overwriting MP3 files the virus would hide the file), and sent a copy of itself to all addresses in the Windows Address Book used by Microsoft Outlook. In contrast, the Melissa virus only sent copies to the first 500 contacts. This made it spread much faster than any other previous email worm.

July 15, 2001 Code Red worm
Code Red was a computer worm observed on the Internet on July 15, 2001. It attacked computers running Microsoft's IIS web server.

The Code Red worm was first discovered and researched by eEye Digital Security employees Marc Maiffret and Ryan Permeh, the Code Red worm exploited a vulnerability discovered by Riley Hassell. They named it "Code Red" because Code Red Mountain Dew was what they were drinking at the time.

Although the worm had been released on July 13, the largest group of infected computers was seen on July 19, 2001. On this day, the number of infected hosts reached 359,000.

September 18th, 2001 Nimda worm
Nimda is a malicious file, infecting computer worm. It spreads, surpassing the economic damage caused by previous outbreaks such as Code Red.

The first released advisory about this thread (worm) was released on September 18th, 2001. Due to the release date, exactly one week after the 9\11 attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, some media quickly began speculating a link between the virus and Al Qaeda, though this theory ended up proving unfounded.

Nimda affected both user workstations (clients) running Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000 or XP and servers running Windows NT and 2000.

The worm's name origin comes from the reversed spelling of "admin".

F-Secure found the text "Concept Virus(CV) V.5, Copyright(C)2001 R.P.China" in the Nimda code, suggesting its country of origin.

February 2002, Jeremiah Jacks
In February 2002, Jeremiah Jacks discovered that Guess.com was vulnerable to an SQL injection attack, permitting anyone able to construct a properly-crafted URL to pull down 200,000+ names, credit card numbers and expiration dates in the site's customer database.

Over view
Titan Rain was the designation given by the federal government of the United States to a series of coordinated attacks on American computer systems since 2003; they were known to have been ongoing for at least three years.

The attacks were labeled as Chinese in origin, although their precise nature, e.g., state-sponsored espionage, corporate espionage, or random hacker attacks, and their real identities – masked by proxy, zombie computer, spyware/virus infected – remain unknown. The activity known as "Titan Rain" is believed to be associated with an Advanced Persistent Threat.

In early December 2005 the director of the SANS Institute, a security institute in the United States, said that the attacks were "most likely the result of Chinese military hackers attempting to gather information on U.S. systems."

Their targets
Titan Rain hackers gained access to many United States defense contractor computer networks who were targeted for their sensitive information, including those at Lockheed Martin, Sandia National Laboratories, Redstone Arsenal, and NASA.

The attackers
The series of attacks are believed by some to be the actions of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), rather than some freelance Chinese hackers. These hackers attacked both the American (Defense Intelligence Agency – DOD) and British Government Departments (Ministry of Defence – MOD). The British government had an incident in 2006 where a part of the House of Commons computer system was shut down by - initially thought to be an individual – an “organised Chinese hacking group.” Although most of the evidence has pointed to the Chinese government as the attackers, the Chinese government has claimed that it was not them who attacked the United States, leading to another possibility that it was hackers using Chinese computers.

August 2003 Mimail attack
Mimail is a computer worm which first emerged in August 2003; it is transmitted via e-mail. Since its initial release, nearly two dozen variants of the original Mimail worm have appeared. The Mydoom worm, which emerged in January 2004, was initially believed to be a variant of Mimail. Mimail is written in the C programming language.

Global attack of 22nd August 2003
The hard hitting 'Sobig.F' virus spread to 134 countries in just 96 hours, generating tens of millions of e-mails. It was the fastest-growing computer virus in history as of that date.

26 January 2004 to 18 February 2005 Mydoom attacks
Mydoom, also known as W32.MyDoom@mm, Novarg, Mimail.R and "'Shimgapi'", is a computer worm affecting Microsoft Windows. It was first sighted on January 26, 2004. It became the fastest-spreading e-mail worm ever (as of January 2004), exceeding previous records set by the Sobig worm and ILOVEYOU, a record which as of 2017 has yet to be surpassed.

A modified form was later released on July 2009.

Doomjuice February 9th, 2004
Doomjuice is a variant of the Mydoom computer worm, in two variants known as Doomjuice.A or Doomjuice.B. It infects Microsoft Windows utilizing the ports left open by the Mydoom.A and Mydoom.B worms. This worm also launches a Denial of Service (DoS) attack on the Microsoft Web site. It struck on February 9th, 2004.

January 13, 2006 Rhode Island attack
On January 13, 2006, Russian computer criminals broke into a Rhode Island government website and allegedly stole credit card data from individuals who have done business online with state agencies.

The attacks
A series of cyber attacks began 27 April 2007 that swamped websites of Estonian organizations, including Estonian parliament, banks, ministries, newspapers and broadcasters, amid the country's disagreement with Russia about the relocation of the Bronze Soldier of Tallinn, an elaborate Soviet-era grave marker, as well as war graves in Tallinn. Most of the attacks that had any influence on the general public were distributed denial of service type attacks ranging from single individuals using various methods like ping floods to expensive rentals of botnets usually used for spam distribution. Spamming of bigger news portals commentaries and defacements including that of the Estonian Reform Party website also occurred.

Some observers reckoned that the onslaught on Estonia was of a sophistication not seen before. The case is studied intensively by many countries and military planners as, at the time it occurred, it may have been the second-largest instance of state-sponsored cyberwarfare, following Titan Rain.

As of January 2008, one ethnic-Russian Estonian national has been charged and convicted.

During a panel discussion on cyber warfare, Sergei Markov of the Russian State Duma has stated his unnamed aide was responsible in orchestrating the cyber attacks. Markov alleged the aide acted on his own while residing in an unrecognised republic of the former Soviet Union, possibly Transnistria.[6] On 10 March 2009 Konstantin Goloskokov, a "commissar" of the Kremlin-backed youth group Nashi, has claimed responsibility for the attack. Experts are critical of these varying claims of responsibility.

Origins of the attacks
Critical systems whose network addresses would not be generally known were targeted, including those serving telephony and financial transaction processing. Although not all of the computer crackers behind the cyberwarfare have been unveiled, some experts believed that such efforts exceed the skills of individual activists or even organised crime as they require a co-operation of a state and a large telecom company.

A Commissar of the Nashi pro-Kremlin youth movement in Moldova and Transnistria, Konstantin Goloskokov (Goloskov in some sources), admitted organizing cyberattacks against Estonian government sites. Goloskokov stressed, however, that he was not carrying out an order from Nashi's leadership and said that a lot of his fellow Nashi members criticized his response as being too harsh.

Like most countries, Estonia does not recognise Transnistria, a secessionist region of Moldova. As an unrecognised nation, Transnistria does not belong to Interpol. Accordingly, no Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty applies. If residents of Transnistria were responsible, the investigation may be severely hampered, and even if the investigation succeeds finding likely suspects, the legal recourse of Estonian authorities may be limited to issuing all-EU arrest warrants for these suspects. Such an act would be largely symbolic.

Head of Russian Military Forecasting Center, Colonel Anatoly Tsyganok confirmed Russia's ability to conduct such an attack when he stated: "These attacks have been quite successful, and today the alliance had nothing to oppose Russia's virtual attacks", additionally noting that these attacks did not violate any international agreement.

2007 Zeus (malware) atacks
Zeus, ZeuS, or Zbot is a Trojan horse malware package that runs on versions of Microsoft Windows. While it can be used to carry out many malicious and criminal tasks, it is often used to steal banking information by man-in-the-browser keystroke logging and form grabbing. It is also used to install the CryptoLocker ransomware. Zeus is spread mainly through drive-by downloads and phishing schemes. First identified in July 2007 when it was used to steal information from the United States Department of Transportation, it became more widespread in March 2009. In June 2009 security company Prevx discovered that Zeus had compromised over 74,000 FTP accounts on websites of such companies as the Bank of America, NASA, Monster.com, ABC, Oracle, Play.com, Cisco, Amazon, and BusinessWeek. Similarly to Koobface, Zeus has also been used to trick victims of tech support scams into giving the scam artists money through pop-up messages that claim the user has a virus, when in reality they might have no viruses at all. The scammers may use programs such as Command prompt or Event viewer to make the user believe that their computer is infected.

Overview
The July 2009 cyberattacks were a series of coordinated cyberattacks against major government, news media, and financial websites in South Korea and the United States. The attacks involved the activation of a botnet—a large number of hijacked computers—that maliciously accessed targeted websites with the intention of causing their servers to overload due to the influx of traffic, known as a DDoS attack. Most of the hijacked computers were located in South Korea. The estimated number of the hijacked computers varies widely; around 20,000 according to the South Korean National Intelligence Service, around 50,000 according to Symantec's Security Technology Response group, and more than 166,000 according to a Vietnamese computer security researcher who analyzed the log files of the two servers the attackers controlled.

The timing and targeting of the attacks have led to suggestions that they may be from North Korea, although these suggestions have not been substantiated.

First wave
The first wave of attacks occurred on July 4, 2009 (Independence Day holiday in the United States), targeting both the United States and South Korea. Among the websites affected were those of the White House and The Pentagon. An investigation revealed that 27 websites were targets in the attack based on files stored on compromised systems.

Second wave
The second wave of attacks occurred on July 7, 2009, affecting South Korea. Among the websites targeted were the presidential Blue House, the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Public Administration and Security, the National Intelligence Service and the National Assembly.

Third wave
A third wave of attacks began on July 9, 2009, targeting several websites in South Korea, including the country's National Intelligence Service as well as one of its largest banks and a major news agency. The U.S. State Department said on July 9 that its website also came under attack. State Department spokesman Ian Kelly said: "I'm just going to speak about our website, the state.gov website. There's not a high volume of attacks. But we're still concerned about it. They are continuing." U.S. Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Amy Kudwa said that the department was aware of the attacks and that it had issued a notice to U.S. federal departments and agencies to take steps to mitigate attacks.

Effects
Despite the fact that the attacks have targeted major public and private sector websites, the South Korean Presidential office has suggested that the attacks are targeted towards causing disruption, rather than stealing data. However, Jose Nazario, manager of a U.S. network security firm, claimed that the attack is estimated to have produced only 23 megabits of data per second, not enough to cause major disruptions. Joe Stewart, researcher at SecureWorks' Counter Threat Unit, said that the data generated by the attacking program appeared to be based on a Korean-language browser.

It was expected that the economic costs associated with websites being down would be large, as the disruption had prevented people from carrying out transactions, purchasing items or conducting business.

Perpetrators
It is not known who is behind the attacks. Reports indicate that the type of attacks being used, commonly known as distributed denial-of-service attacks, were unsophisticated. Given the prolonged nature of the attacks, they are being recognized as a more coordinated and organized series of attacks. According to the South Korean National Intelligence Service, the source of the attacks was tracked down and the government activated an emergency cyber-terror response team who blocked access to five host sites containing the malicious code and 86 websites that downloaded the code, located in 16 countries, including the United States, Guatemala, Japan and the People's Republic of China, but North Korea was not among them. Later, it has been discovered that the malicious code responsible for causing the attack, identified as W32.Dozer, is programmed to destroy data on infected computers and to prevent the computers from being rebooted. South Korean police are analyzing a sample of the thousands of computers used to crash websites, stating that there is "various evidence" of North Korean involvement, but said they may not find the culprit. Security experts said that the attack re-used code from the Mydoom worm. One analyst thinks that the attacks likely came from the United Kingdom.

On October 30, 2009, South Korea's spy agency, the National Intelligence Service, stated the origin of the attacks were from North Korea's telecommunications ministry.

November 8, 2010 British Royal Navy attack
On November 8, 2010 the British Royal Navy website was compromised by a Romanian hacker named TinKode using SQL injection.

April 17 and April 19, 2011 PlayStation Network outage
The 2011 PlayStation Network outage was the result of an "external intrusion" on Sony's PlayStation Network and Qriocity services, in which personal details from approximately 77 million accounts were compromised and prevented users of PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable consoles from accessing the service. The attack occurred between April 17 and April 19, 2011, forcing Sony to turn off the PlayStation Network on April 20. On May 4 Sony confirmed that personally identifiable information from each of the 77 million accounts had been exposed. The outage lasted 23 days.

At the time of the outage, with a count of 77 million registered PlayStation Network accounts, it was one of the largest data security breaches in history. It surpassed the 2007 TJX hack which affected 45 million customers. Government officials in various countries voiced concern over the theft and Sony's one-week delay before warning its users.

Sony stated on April 26 that it was attempting to get online services running "within a week." On May 14, Sony released PlayStation 3 firmware version 3.61 as a security patch. The firmware required users to change their password upon signing in. At the time the firmware was released, the network was still offline. Regional restoration was announced by Kazuo Hirai in a video from Sony. A map of regional restoration and the network within the United States was shared as the service was coming back online.

Norwegian attack of July 9th, 2014
Anonymous Norway claimed responsibility for massive cyber-attack on Norwegian banks, but not the Norwegian insurance firms.

August 2014 Hold Security attack
In August 2014, Milwaukee-based computer security company Hold Security disclosed that it uncovered a theft of confidential information from nearly 420,000 websites through SQL injections. The New York Times confirmed this finding by hiring a security expert to check the claim.

November 24, 2014, Sony Pictures hack
On November 24, 2014, a hacker group which identified itself by the name "Guardians of Peace" (GOP) leaked a release of confidential data from the film studio Sony Pictures. The data included personal information about Sony Pictures employees and their families, e-mails between employees, information about executive salaries at the company, copies of then-unreleased Sony films, and other information.[1]

In November 2014, the GOP group demanded that Sony pull its film The Interview, a comedy about a plot to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un, and threatened terrorist attacks at cinemas screening the film. After major U.S. cinema chains opted not to screen the film in response to these threats, Sony elected to cancel the film's formal premiere and mainstream release, opting to skip directly to a digital release followed by a limited theatrical release the next day.[2][3][4]

United States intelligence officials, after evaluating the software, techniques, and network sources used in the hack, alleged that the attack was sponsored by North Korea.[5] North Korea has denied all responsibility.

Novetta blamed the Lazarus Group,Lazarus Group is a cybercrime group

Stammberger provided to the FBI Norse's findings that suggest the hack was an inside job, stating, "Sony was not just hacked; this is a company that was essentially nuked from the inside. After a private briefing lasting three hours, the FBI formally rejected Norse's alternative assessment.[98]

The report, published in collaboration with Kaspersky Lab, Symantec, AlienVault, Invincea, Trend Micro, Carbon Black, PunchCyber, RiskIQ, ThreatConnect and Volexity, concluded that a well-resourced organization had committed the intrusion, a

6] Symantec reported in 2017 that it was "highly likely" that Lazarus was behind the WannaCry attack.[7]

The WannaCry Malware that affected as many as 300,000 computers worldwide are likely authored by hackers from southern China, Hong Kong, Taiwan or Singapore, said a US intelligence company.[8]

October 2015 Talk Talk attack
October 2015, an SQL injection attack was used to steal the personal details of 156,959 customers from British telecommunications company Talk Talk's servers, exploiting a vulnerability in a legacy web portal.

NHS Orkney attack of August 2015
NHS Orkney had a virus that encrypt a number of internal files.

Ukraine attack of Christmas 2015

World wide
Over 100 banks in 30 countries and NHS Grampian logged the largest number of cyber attacks (2,250) against Scotland’s health boards in the last 3 years (2013-2016). Scottish businesses £5billion per year over these 3 years.

Bangladesh Bank robbery of February 2016


The Bangladesh Bank robbery, also known colloquially as the Bangladesh Bank heist, took place in February 2016, when instructions to steal US$951 million from Bangladesh Bank, the central bank of Bangladesh, were issued via the SWIFT network. Five transactions issued by hackers, worth $101 million and withdrawn from a Bangladesh Bank account at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, succeeded, with $20 million traced to Sri Lanka (since recovered) and $81 million to the Philippines (about $18 million recovered). The New York Fed blocked the remaining thirty transactions, amounting to $850 million, at the request of Bangladesh Bank. It was identified later that Dridex malware was used for the attack. Atiur Rahman, Governor of Bangladesh Bank who resigned from his post in response to the case and On August 5, 2016, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas approved a ₱1 billion (~US$52.92 million) fine against RCBC for its non-compliance with banking laws and regulations in connection with the bank robbery. This is the largest monetary fine ever approved by BSP against any institution. RCBC stated that the bank will comply with the BSP's decision, and will pay the imposed fine.

16-21 October 2016 Cyber Attacks on the USA

Baltic energy networks atack of May 11th-16th, 2017
A suspected Russia-backed hackers target Baltic energy networks on May 11th, 2017.

Overview
Some very sophisticated and well dedicated scum-bags, suspected to be in a organised crime outfit, caused a lot of unwanted suffering on May 12th, 2017. It started with hitting 99 countries on the 12th and 150 (?) by the 15th with targets including the UK's NHS, Spain's Telefónica S.A., Spain's energy system, El Mundo and possibly some minor US health firms and a O'Porto dentist's surgery.

A black, white and red or black only screen with a image of a lock on it, containing red, black or white text notice came up on the screen saying show a program demanding $300 (£230) in bitcoin within 3 days or $600 within 7 days, that looks similar to or actualy is the ransomware known as WannaCryptor or WCry. If it is not done, the shit heads say that will wipe the data.

The virus
WannaCry, also known as WanaCrypt0r 2.0, is a ransomware software package. In May 2017, a large scale infection started affecting Telefónica and several other large companies in Spain, as well as parts of the British National Health Service. Many other countries were attacked by WanaCrypt0r 2.0. Other targets in at least 11 countries were also reported to have been attacked around the same time. WannaCry is believed to use the EternalBlue exploit to attack computers running Microsoft Windows operating systems.

WannaCry is believed to use the EternalBlue exploit, which was developed by the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) to attack computers running Microsoft Windows operating systems. Although a patch to remove the underlying vulnerability for supported systems had been issued on 14 March 2017, delays in applying security updates and lack of support by Microsoft of legacy versions of Windows left many users vulnerable. Due to the scale of the attack, to deal with the unsupported Windows systems, Microsoft has taken the unusual step of releasing updates for all older unsupported operating systems from Windows XP onwards.

Shortly after the attack began a researcher found an effective kill switch, which prevented many new infections. This greatly slowed the spread. However, it has been reported that subsequently new versions of the attack have been detected which lack the kill switch, thus able to spread to systems in which the vulnerability has not been patched.

Following an investigation by The Sunday Times, which showed that YouTube was "providing a platform for criminals promoting and selling ransomware" by allowing hackers to post step-by-step guides to build ransomware on the platform, as well as providing links to websites where ransomware can be purchased for $20 (£15), YouTube terminated at least one channel and removed other guides on how to build ransomware.

Computers targeted
According to Wired, affected systems will also have had the DOUBLEPULSAR backdoor installed; this will also need to be removed when systems are decrypted.

Windows systems Microsoft had taken the unusual step of releasing updates for the long unsupported Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 and patches for Windows 8 operating systems. Shortly after the attack began a British and American researcher found an effective kill switch.

More than 230,000 computers were infected by 10.30pm on 14th of May 2017. As of 17 May 2017, at 2:33am UTC, May 17th, a total of 238 payments totaling $72,144.76 had been transferred.

Arne Schönbohm (de), President of Germany's Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), stated that:
 * "the current attacks show how vulnerable our digital society is. It's a wake-up call for companies to finally take IT security [seriously]".

UK government cover-up
In the UK the impact on the NHS quickly became political, with claims that the effects were exacerbated by Conservative Party under-funding of the NHS as part of the government's austerity measures, in particular the refusal to pay extra to keep protecting outdated Windows XP systems from such attacks. Home secretary Amber Rudd refused to say whether patient data had been backed up, and shadow health secretary Jon Ashworth accused health secretary Jeremy Hunt of refusing to act on a critical note from Microsoft, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and the National Crime Agency two months previously.


 * According the UK government 0 trusts were sill down on the 13th down and 5% used XP.
 * According to NHS England 5 trusts were sill down on the 13th down and 20% used XP.
 * According to NHS staff 7 trusts were sill down on the 14th down and most used XP, the rest being Windows 7 and Widowas 8.
 * The health secatery said the NHS, like all of us, should have backed up our data and updated our computers in accordance to Microsoft wishes.
 * The BBC and Sky News said mostly XPs were hit, but thire with some later OSs were also victims by May 15.
 * The British Defense Secretary, Michael Fallon, said on May 15th that the NHS has been given about £50m to pay for them to improve theirs computer systems and was repeatedly warned about cyber threats before the attack took place.
 * Later, Jon Ashworth accused health secretary Jeremy Hunt of refusing to act on a critical note from Microsoft, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and the National Crime Agency two months previously on May.
 * Hospital staff confirmed it was contained after a week and was all sorted out after 2 weeks.

The blame game

 * http://www.libertatea.ro, some NATO figures and some people in the Romanian governments said the online terrorist group FancyBears did it.
 * The American traitor Edward Snowden, several UK tech experts and US tech experts said the American secret service did it.
 * Some French tech experts said the people who sold the data to Wikileaks cause it indirectly by spreading forbidden knowledge with the aim of causing anarchy on line.
 * Microsoft officials were angry that they were not told of the unintended 'back-door' since they could have patched it, but let the secret service use it when necessary. A spokesman accused them of slack protection of thire cyber weapons as akin to the theft of cruise missiles from a poorly guarded conventional arms depot.
 * The Russian goverment blamed the American government.
 * The American goverment blamed the N. Korean government for it.
 * The Ukrainan goverment blamed the Russian government for it.
 * Europol blamed organised crime for both it's creation and use.
 * Some British people believed it was a Islamist\Hillary Clinton\NSA\Ukrainian world takeover bid.
 * Although cybersecurity companies Kaspersky Lab and Symantec had both said by May 16 that the code has some similarities with that previously used by the Lazarus Group, (believed to have carried out the cyberattack on Sony Pictures in 2014 and a Bangladesh bank heist in 2016 – and linked to North Korea), this may be either simple re-use of code by another group, or an attempt to shift blame – as in a false flag operation.

Overview
Tuxissa is a fictional computer virus hoax made up by Humorix, a humor website on Linux.

Although the website states that all articles there are fake, anti-virus software makers such as Symantec, Sophos and F-Secure had pages for the Tuxissa virus hoax.

How it works (in theory)
The virus is based on the Melissa virus, with its aim to install Linux onto the victim's computer without the owner's notice. It is spread via e-mail, contained within a message titled "Important Message About Windows Security". It first spreads the virus to other computers, then it downloads a stripped-down version of Slackware, and uncompresses it onto the hard disk. The Windows Registry is finally deleted, and the boot options changed. There the virus destroys itself when it reboots the computer at the end, with the user facing the Linux login prompt.
