My husband came home from work yesterday, talking about a 'hack' from CCP on computers. The computers at the hospital were really slow.
This morning, I read an article from Headline USA, 'Fed. Cybersecurity Agency Issues Rare Warning for Dominion Partner SolarWinds'
Government Warning:
'encourages organizations that use SolarWinds Orion Platform software to review the following advisories for information on publicly identified nation state backed threat actor activity'
'The company said the attack relied on “trojans”—malicious code written into updates that occurred between March and June of this year.'
I am suspicious of things that others have to tell me is good for me. So it is with persistent upgrades. Please don't push an upgrade on me, I barely have a foundational understanding of the technology in hand.
Perhaps we should all be suspicious of upgrades as my computer worked normally yesterday. I rarely, if ever, upgrade.
