  2. Yesterday, a new ransomware wreaked havoc across the world. This new malware variant, which combines the functionality of ransomware with the behaviors of a worm, is being called Petya, Petrwrap, and even NotPetya, since researchers are still investigating as to whether its ability to modify the Master Boot Record of a targeted machine is based on the Petya family of malware.
