LONDON—Security experts are warning that the global cyberattack that began on Friday is likely to be magnified in the new workweek as users return to their offices and turn on their computers. Many workers, particularly in Asia, had already logged off on Friday when the malicious software, stolen from the United States government, began proliferating across computer systems around the world. So the true impact of the attack may emerge on Monday as employees return and log in. Moreover, copycat variants of the malicious software behind the attacks are likely to spread, since the malware uses mostly open-source code and is easily replicable.
Rob Wainwright, the executive director of Europol, said on Sunday that the attacks had hit 200,000 computers in more than 150 countries. Among the organizations hit were FedEx in the United States, the Spanish telecom giant Telef6nica, the French automaker Renault, universities in China, Germany’s federal railway system and Russia’s powerful Interior Ministry. The most disruptive attacks infected Britain’s public health system, where surgeries had to be rescheduled and some patients were turned away from emergency rooms. Nancy Harper, who went to the hospital for an X-ray, said: "It’s concerning that the N.H.S. was dependent on these outdated systems. If your average person has access to cheap cloud storage these days, then hospitals should be using similar backup methods. I hope this was a wake-up call."
"We could see more attacks if people start to copycat this attack," Matthieu Suiche added. A 22-year-old British researcher who uses the Twitter name Malware Tech has been credited with inadvertently helping to
stanch
the spread of the assault by identifying the web domain for the hackers’ "kill switch"—a way of disabling the malware.
Governments around the world were bracing themselves for the start of the workweek. "This is crucial for businesses when reopening on Monday: Please be aware and anticipate, and take preventive steps against the Wanna Cry malware attack," Indonesia’s communication and information minister, Rudiantara, who like many Indonesians uses only one name, said at a news conference. He advised those hit by the malware against paying the $300 to $600 in Bitcoin demanded as ransom to regain access to encrypted data, since there was no assurance that the extortionists would decrypt the files as promised.
Which one of the following statements about Rudiantara is NOT true?
选项
A、He, like any other Indonesian, used only one name.
B、He declared that government should take precautionary measures to defeat malicious attack.
C、He encouraged people who suffered attack to pay to regain their encrypted data.
D、He suspected that the blackmailer would keep their promise to decrypt the files.
答案
C
解析
细节题。根据题干关键词定位到文章最后一段。B项关键词precautionary,take measures可在…and take preventive steps against the Wanna Cry malware attack(采取步骤预防“想哭”恶意软件的攻击)中找到相关信息,其中precautionary是preventive的同义替换,意为“预防的”。D项意为“他怀疑敲诈者是否会信守承诺,解密文件”,其是该段最后一句since there was no assur ance that the extortionists would decrypt the files as promised(无法保证敲诈勒索者会按他们承诺的去做,对文件进行解密)的同义替换。C项意为“他鼓励那些受到恶意软件攻击的人为了把被加密的数据换回来可以支付赎金”,其与原文He advised those hit by the malware against paying the $300 to $600…表述不一致,故本题选C。
