Just saw this from SecurityWeek
3.2 million devices exposed to ransomware attacks: Cisco.
Security researchers from Cisco Talos discovered that approximately 3.2 million computers were
vulnerable to file-encrypting ransomware due to out-of-date software after an Internet scan on already
compromised devices revealed that more than 2,100 backdoors across 1,600 Internet Protocol (IP)
addresses were associated with governments, schools, aviation companies, and other organizations. Cisco
advised administrators to disable external access to infected machine to keep attackers away.
