Re: New strain of ransomware targeting servers?
"Aren't we forgeting something, like the name of the Operating System required for this malware to sucessfully operate."
It says that it's attacking JBoss application servers - which as a Red Hat product - usually runs on Red Hat Linux boxes.
(As a rough rule of thumb - if an exploit requires user interaction - it's usually a Windows exploit - if it doesn't need user interaction - it's often Linux / OSS based.)
"The article says it targets JBoss application servers using stolen credentials."
Nope, it says Jboss application servers are being targeted using the JexBoss security testing tool.
