The most terrible computer virus "Red Square" is spreading with great speed. It is capable of disrupting the computer systems of not only ordinary users, but also erasing even large databases.
The Red Square virus became the worst virus of 2017. Its first appearance was noted back in February, however, it did not reach a large scale. Already today, such large companies as Megafon, Sberbank of the Russian Federation and the Ministry of Internal Affairs were able to successfully reflect it. The "red square" blocks absolutely all data, after which a message comes that you need to pay a certain amount of money in order for the blocking to be lifted. Its second name is WannaCry. Finding it is very difficult due to the fact that it carries out all its operations without using files.
