 From SaaS to PaaS to MaaS..
In May 2017, a new form of ransomware called WannaCry affected more than 230,000 personal and business computers in over 150 countries. The ransomware affected organizations, such as Deutsche Bahn AG (a German railway company), NHS Scotland (the publicly funded healthcare system in Scotland), National Health Service of England, Saudi Telecom Company, and FedEx (an international courier delivery services company). The ransomware attack is now estimated to be one of the largest global security incidents in the history of the Web.WannaCry is based on the security exploit EternalBlue developed by the U.S. National Security Agency. WannaCry was released by the hacker group The Shadow Brokers. The Shadow Brokers announced that they provide cybercriminals with the opportunity to purchase paid subscription services allowing them to access various exploits and data stolen from important organizations. The hacking group claims to have data from Russian, North Korean, Iranian, and Chinese nuclear weapons, as well as data from the Swift banking network. Thus, shortly, we may witness the increasing popularity of a new Web-based service, namely, malware-as-a-service. The purpose of this article is to examine the history of malware-as-a-service (Section 2), the ecosystem of malware-as-a-service (Section 3), and the state of the art and the future of malware-as-a-service (Section 4). Finally, we draw a conclusion (Section 5).Read on:-http://resources.infosecinstitute.com/malware-as-a-service/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+infosecResources+(InfoSec+Resources)
