You would think he would have tried a factory restore as a first step anyway as that would have been a detailed step in the troubleshooting guide at the back of the TV's user manual, the TV would have been fixed in 5 minutes :)

Quarter of Dutch hospitals does not secure their websites sufficiently enough according to Dutch WICS, women in cybersecurity. 25 hospitals did not even use secure connections, others were vulnerable to potential patient data breaches etc.

Dutch news link: http://www.trouw.nl/tr/nl/39683/nbsp/article/detail/4444509/2017/01/06/Ziekenhuizen-beveiligen-sites-niet-goed.dhtml (use google translate)

If management income has a first priority and security comes as a last resort issue, we could get into a situation we have at hand now

There is already similar products from Bitdefender / F-Secure / ASUS-TrendMicro

New Scheme: Spread Popcorn Time Ransomware, get chance of free Decryption Key
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/new-scheme-spread-popcorn-time-ransomware-get-chance-of-free-decryption-key/


 With Popcorn Time, not only can a victim pay a ransom to get their files back, but they can also try to infect two other people and have them pay the ransom in order to get a free key.
