Abstract
“ "Instead of blasting out one copy of the malware out to thousands of potential victims over a day or two, the crooks blast thousands of copies of the malware onto computers inside a single organization, pretty much all at once," the IT security company explains in an Apr. 27 blog post authored by senior technologist Paul Ducklin. "And then, almost casually, they offer a 'volume discount' to fix the entire company in one fell swoop."
