It was designed to make the software locking up many of Merck’s computers—eventually dubbed NotPetya—look like the handiwork of ordinary criminals. In fact, according to Western intelligence agencies, NotPetya was the creation of the GRU, Russia’s military intelligence agency—the same one that had hacked the Democratic National Committee the previous year.<br /><br />NotPetya’s impact on Merck that day—June 27, 2017—and for weeks afterward was devastating.In all, the attack crippled more than 30,000 laptop and desktop computers at the global drugmaker, as well as 7,500 servers, according to a person familiar with the matter. Sales, manufacturing, and research units were all hit. One researcher told a colleague she’d lost 15 years of work. Near Dellapena’s suburban office, a manufacturing facility that supplies vaccines for the U.S. market had ground to a halt.<br /><br />As it turned out, NotPetya’s real targets were half a world away, in Ukraine, which has been in heightened conflict with Russia since 2014. In the former Soviet republic, the malware rocketed through government agencies, banks, power stations—even the Chernobyl radiation monitoring system. Merck was apparently collateral damage. NotPetya contaminated Merck via a server in its Ukraine office that was running an infected tax software application called M.E.Doc.<br /><br />NotPetya spread. It hopped from computer to computer, from country to country. It hit FedEx, the shipping giant Maersk, the global confectioner Mondelēz International, the advertising firm WPP, and hundreds of other companies. All in all, the White House said in a statement afterward, it was the “most destructive and costly cyberattack in history.” [more]<br /><br />[last part next]<br /><br />Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02819564675299071481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4388504906915444063.post-27160523682131949322019-12-05T07:58:54.996-06:002019-12-05T07:58:54.996-06:00[that was regarding fire; here's another aspec...[that was regarding fire; here's another aspect]<br />Tropical Cyclone 06A is heading to the area where unprecedented rainfall has recently killed hundreds in Eastern and Central Africa where already one million people are displaced<br />http://www.thebigwobble.org/2019/12/tropical-cyclone-06a-is-heading-to-area.html<br /><br />Tropical Cyclone 06A off the coast of Somalia, the cyclone is swirling in the northwestern Indian Ocean with maximum sustained winds of 40 mph, according to The Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC).

The maximum sustained winds for that system are expected to stay around 35 mph. <br />Tropical Cyclone 06A will continue to track southwestward before making landfall Thursday evening. Its winds are then expected to quickly diminish to less than 30 mph as it moves across the area immediately north of Somalia’s capital city, Mogadishu, the storm is expected to bring torrential rain to an area of the world which is suffering unprecedented flooding, with hundreds dead and one million displaced from flooding earlier in the month.

Prolonged by a crippling drought and warm weather have resulted in more than 7,000 wildfires in the last 5 months. An incredible 4 million acres of land has been lost including areas of national parks and a World Heritage site according to the Climate Council. The fires have decimated an already struggling wildlife and destroyed more homes than ever before. However, here is the scary part, scientists are forecasting the worst is yet to come as Australia enters its hottest wildfire season of this year, reports the Climate Council.
