Kwaze kwaziwa ukuthi amakhompyutha amakhulu ambalwa avela emazweni ahlukene esifundeni saseYurophu angenwe i-malware yezimayini ze-cryptocurrencies kuleli sonto. Izigameko zalolu hlobo zenzeke e-UK, Germany, Switzerland naseSpain.
Umbiko wokuqala wokuhlasela ufike ngoMsombuluko uvela eNyuvesi yase-Edinburgh, lapho kukhona khona i-supercomputer ye-ARCHER. Umlayezo ohambisanayo nesincomo sokushintsha amagama ayimfihlo omsebenzisi nokhiye be-SSH kushicilelwe kuwebhusayithi yesikhungo.
Ngalo lolo suku, inhlangano ye-BwHPC, edidiyela amaphrojekthi ocwaningo kuma-supercomputers, imemezele isidingo sokumisa ukufinyelela kumaqoqo amakhompyutha amahlanu eJalimane ukuze kuphenywe “izigameko zokuphepha.”
Le mibiko iqhubekile ngoLwesithathu lapho umcwaningi wezokuphepha uFelix von Leitner ebhala ibhulogi ukuthi ukufinyelela kukhompyutha enkulu e-Barcelona, eSpain, bekuvaliwe ngenkathi kwenziwa uphenyo ngesigameko se-cybersecurity.
Ngakusasa, imilayezo efanayo yafika ivela e-Leibniz Computing Center, isikhungo saseBavarian Academy of Sciences, kanye nase-Jülich Research Center, esedolobheni laseJalimane elinegama elifanayo. Izikhulu zimemezele ukuthi ukufinyelela kuma-supercomputer e-JURECA, JUDAC kanye ne-JUWELS kuvaliwe kulandela "isigameko sokuphepha kolwazi." Ngaphezu kwalokho, iSwiss Centre for Scientific Computing eZurich iphinde yavala ukufinyelela kwangaphandle kwingqalasizinda yamaqoqo ayo ekhompyutha ngemuva kwesigameko sokuphepha kolwazi “kuze kube yilapho kubuyiselwa indawo evikelekile.”
Azikho izinhlangano ezishicilele imininingwane mayelana nezigameko ezenzeke. Kodwa-ke, Ithimba Lempendulo Yesigameko Sokuphepha Kolwazi (CSIRT), elixhumanisa ucwaningo lwekhompyutha enkulu kulo lonke elaseYurophu, lishicilele amasampula ohlelo olungayilungele ikhompuyutha nedatha eyengeziwe kwezinye zezehlakalo.
Amasampula ohlelo olungayilungele ikhompuyutha ahlolwe ngochwepheshe benkampani yaseMelika iCado Security, esebenza emkhakheni wezokuphepha kolwazi. Ngokusho kochwepheshe, abahlaseli bathole ukufinyelela kuma-supercomputers ngokusebenzisa idatha yomsebenzisi esengozini nokhiye be-SSH. Kukholakala nokuthi kwebiwe nemininingwane kubasebenzi bamanyuvesi aseCanada, China nasePoland, abebekwazi ukuthola ama-computing cluster ukuze benze ucwaningo oluhlukene.
Nakuba bungekho ubufakazi obusemthethweni bokuthi konke ukuhlasela kwenziwa iqembu elilodwa labaduni, amagama afanayo wefayela le-malware nezihlonzi zenethiwekhi zibonisa ukuthi uchungechunge lokuhlasela lwenziwa iqembu elilodwa. I-Cado Security ikholelwa ukuthi abahlaseli basebenzise ukuxhashazwa kwe-CVE-2019-15666 sengozini ukuze bathole ukufinyelela kuma-supercomputers, base bekhipha isofthiwe yokumba i-cryptocurrency ye-Monero (XMR).
Kuyaqapheleka ukuthi izinhlangano eziningi eziphoqeleke ukuthi zivale ukufinyelela kuma-supercomputer kuleli sonto phambilini bezimemezele ukuthi zibeka phambili ucwaningo lwe-COVID-19.
