WannaCry 2.0: Bigger & Badder

A few weeks ago, the world was rocked by the malicious WannaCry cyberattack that infected over 200,000 machines, including logistics giant FedEx, Spanish telco Telefonica and the British National Health Service.

We speak to David Allott, Cyber Defense Director APAC at McAfee to talk about Adylkuzz and the threat it brings to organisations.
