Newly Found Malware Deliberately Avoids Government Networks

 

 

A newly discovered family of malware is being used to compromise Linux servers exposed to the internet. The good news for IT pros is that it doesn't appear to be targeting traditional commercial servers but is going after consumer devices.

 

Nothing to panic about but worth taking notice of.

Thanks for the heads up

What a stupid, misguided and misleading comment.

 

Don't worry, IT Pro! Your server is safe but everyone who connects to it with their personal devices will be compromised. Good thing "IT pros" don't have to worry about consumer devices.
