Other Attack Worms
The bad part about this is that it caused problems on health care networks that where older and didn't have the resources to combat it quickly. I work in health IT and saw it happening quite a bit. These ridiculous people that insist on creating worms are causing risks in healthcare and I'm sure in other fields and are starting to cause risks to patients. They absolute disregard for other people and the potential damage is astounding to me. Hackers used to show exploitations to help companies fix problems, now, they do it just to harm and cause havoc. The hackers code has been compromised and discarded in the past ten years. Its very disappointing to me that they are fighting over the amount of machines their worms now control.
