Yesterday, I went to the electronic reading room. Not long after I plugged in the USB flash drive, the teacher suddenly asked everyone to unplug the USB flash drive. Some students found that all the files in the USB flash drive could not be opened, and there were two more documents asking for money
so everyone rushed to check, as long as the U disk inserted in the school computer were poisoned, large-scale computer poisoning occurred in the evening
a lot of people's information and graation thesis are in the computer. I really feel that hacker's behavior is disgusting. For the sake of money, regardless of the future of students, teachers' lifelong scientific research achievements...
hope to catch criminals as soon as possible and give them severe punishment by law
this virus will scan windows devices with open 445 file sharing port. As long as the user's device is on the Internet, hackers can implant blackmail software, remote control Trojan horse, virtual currency mining machine and other malicious programs in computers and servers
some security researchers point out that this large-scale network attack seems to be deployed through a worm application, and wannacry can spread among computers. What's more terrible is that unlike most malicious programs, this program can replicate and spread on its own in the network, and most of the current viruses still need to rely on the successful users to spread by cheating them to click the attachment with the attack code
the attack has affected 99 countries and as many as 75000 computers, but because the virus uses anonymous network and bitcoin anonymous transaction to obtain ransom, it is very difficult to track and locate the originator of the virus
Trojan horse is generally defined as a person or thing that secretly causes damage to the enemy or leads to the downfall of the opponent. In today's world, bitcoin is a "Trojan horse". This kind of virtual currency manipulated by "geeks" attracts naive, innocent and ignorant investors on Wall Street by taking advantage of human greed
Peter Schiff is the CEO of europacific capital and a best-selling writer. He thinks bitcoin is the gold of fools Hugo Salinas price, a very successful Mexican businessman, encouraged the government to accept silver as legal tender. He believes that bitcoin will become a tragic history caused by large-scale speculationa former counterterrorism analyst at the CIA said that terrorists are using innovative technologies to raise funds, one of which is bitcoin. He said it was the first terrorist group to use bitcoin publicly
in general, bitcoin fanatics should follow the advice of these successful Wall Street people: no one is more blind than those who refuse to face them
no matter in any country, bitcoin does not need to be developed in a large scale, because it will affect human society< br />
Virtual currency wallets and local wallets are wallets specially used to store virtual currency
difference: local wallets are installed on their own computers or mobile phones, while online wallets encrypt the private key and put it on the server
personal computers may be implanted with Trojans; The wallet server also has the risk of being attacked by hackers, and the encrypted private key is cracked. Server security is better than personal computers, but it is easier to attract hackers' attention
virtual currency Wallet:
there are three main types: Online wallet, client wallet (mobile client, computer client) and hard wallet
1. Online Wallet: it refers to the operation of virtual currency relative to wallet by users in the form of network; The main form is website, which users can visit through computer and mobile phone
2. Client Wallet: it is an installation software, which needs to be downloaded to the computer or mobile phone, and can only be used after installation; This is the type of mobile app wallet that I just mentioned
3. Hard Wallet: it is similar to the wallet in the form of U disk, which is a real type of wallet
local Wallet:
the English name of local wallet is local wallet. Local wallet is to store private key and transaction data in local terminal, such as computer, mobile phone or other local devices; It refers to the storage location of the key, and its concept is independent of online wallet and offline wallet
the English name of local wallet is local wallet. It is one of the terms related to bitcoin wallet in blockchain. Local wallet is to store private key and transaction data in local terminal, such as computer, mobile phone or other local devices; Local wallet refers to the storage location of key, which is independent of online wallet and offline wallet
the local wallet is installed on your own computer or mobile phone, while the online wallet is encrypted and put on the server. Personal computers may be implanted with Trojans. Hackers may steal your wallet files and record your wallet password; The wallet server may also be attacked by hackers, and the encrypted private key may be cracked. Server security protection is better than personal computers, but it is also easier to attract hackers' attention. In terms of security, I think these two types of wallets are similar
to enhance the security of local wallet and online wallet, it's better to set a more complex password, and don't forget it. Both local wallet and online wallet are easy to use and easy to use. Because online wallet is not limited by clients, it is easier to use than local wallet. Bitcoin core, Bitai wallet and bitpai wallet all belong to this category

in May 2017, computer network virus attacks have spread to 74 countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, China, Russia, Spain, Italy, etc.
bitcoin virus (bitcoin Trojan horse) "bitcoin blackmailer" was popular abroad in 2014, and was found in China in early 15 years. This kind of Trojan will encrypt 114 kinds of files in the infected computer, such as docx, PDF, xlsx, JPG and so on, making it unable to open normally, and pop up windows to "blackmail" the victim, requiring the victim to pay 3 bitcoin as "ransom". According to the recent bitcoin price found by the reporter from the Internet, 3 bitcoin is almost 5000 yuan or 6000 yuan. This kind of Trojan horse is generally spread through English mail. The name of the Trojan horse program is usually in English, which means "order", "proct details", etc., and uses fax or form icon, which is very confusing. The recipient easily mistakenly thinks that it is a working file and clicks to run the Trojan horse program.
