Cyberspace around the world has fallen victim to a massive ransomware attack.
How could such a thing happen? New Scientist sums it up:
The first computers were infected by people unwittingly clicking links in phishing emails. But from each patient zero the software then spread through computer networks by itself. Once installed on a machine, the malware encrypted all of the files it could find, locking them away from users.
