The application-extortionist WannaCry caused damage to hundreds of thousands of computers around the world, taking advantage of the vulnerability of Windows operating systems. As you know, the exploit for it was created by the US National Security Agency, from where it was stolen by a group of hackers Shadow Brokers, then published on the Internet.

The same group presented some other vulnerabilities from the NSA arsenal for hacking computers around the world. For certain, the NSA still has unopened secrets, which many will also not mind stealing.

Qihu has developed the 360 ??NSA Cyber ??Weapons Defense application, which aims to scan computers and search for known vulnerabilities already used by the NSA.

This includes the exploit EternalBlue, which was used in the case of extortionist WannaCry, EternalChampion, EternalRomance and EternalSynergy.

Experts claim that the NSA's cyber weapon can penetrate 70% of Windows computers. A non-computer can be infected when you go online without going through the links and launching files. The application scans the computer in search of updates to block known vulnerabilities. If a vulnerability is found, updates are automatically downloaded. To install them, the user will need administrator rights.
