  1. Here is the problem. See if you can follow me. You have trains that run on time, and at the train station the computer that runs the trains and all the anxillary departments, ticketing, baggage, employees data, physical trains where there are, in repair or not, and then you have computer connection to contractors where information goes back and forth abour business and what is to be done. Now picture that little beehive working, synergistically, and one day the train station computer is hacked, and the off switch is flipped and everything comes to a halt. Nothing can happens without the computer brain working. Worse, is because all the connected businesses to the train station using the software, they too have been affected and their business cannot work because their information processing has stopped. Now, ask your question if new equipment will solve the problem? The answer is no. The train computer system was built to standard and they set security up when it was built a few decades ago, but software has changed, and the original operating system has changed, and maybe the kept up with the upgrades and maybe they didn't. What happens is software upgrades can be made automatic. Those upgrapes need to be tended to because maybe there is a security opening that needs to be patched, and maybe it gets patched and maybe it doesn't. People are awfully busy. Hackers learn what is running on the computer and find vulnerabilities, could be more than one, and that my friend is what we then can call an exploit. The hackers can exploit the vulnerability, walk in the door, go up to the control panel, make needed changes, and now they are in control. They flip the switch to off and there is nothing you can do, as you are locked out from the system. Everything connected to you downstream is also locked out and so there you are, in a digital choke hold. Pay or cease to exist. Remember the whole system everywhere is down, there is no way to replace all the equipment to solve this problem. 9 times out of 10 the exploit vulnerability was preventible.

  2.  @rupertmcdonald7518  Is your nick name Fantasia? New World Order? dude, that's some old crap right there. Democrats taking orders from the chinese and no way they anybody's NWO. Get real.

  4. These guys are are like Tom Brady the best at what they do. They know how to search for vulnerable targets, and it doesn't end they find them, they ask the 5 W's of hacking, then they make a plan, and execute it. The that boggles my mind is the lack of redundancy. No back up capability is designed into the system, I guess that is what makes them so attractive.

  5. Tencet Finance is reporting a vaccine will be ready for mass distribution by December. It's owner says it will be two shots and the virus will be gone. However, he states the vaccing will be expensive. Details were not in the information. Tencent Finance is a Chinese magazine.

  7. Question? what is the vaccine supposed to do? Why aren't animal trials happening? If the drug does what it is supposed to in the aminal would that not be indication it is a viable drug? Racing to human trials withe excuse it must be dine quickly sounds a bit ignorant from a scientific prospective. No, I think the roper animals should be tested first and at least find out what the drug does. Where it goes and what it does inside, beside passing oit of to humjans without knowing anything, does that make any sense? Well tell the MDs that.

  8. Blinken's statement and I heard this at his press conference was return the president to power or you will US aid to the military. And now I hear it is law, why do I hear butyoulele' eqivocating like Blicken is insure of the situation? The pressident of Nuger has been arrested and remioved from power, period. How is the US going to support the perpetrator of this military action, by the same person, my understand is e has done this before 18 months ago, and he is still in power? this sound like a typical Biden foreign policy screwup.

  9. Why? Russia studies America, teaches student English. what does America teach its student about Russia? Nothing. The idea is its just money. So, smart guys in Russia learn the craft, join the group and make lots of money steal from the world. America isn't the only place English is spoken. Other places getting hit not talking about paying. What behind is Computer Design, to not be able to escape a choke hold means you must pay or cease to exist.

  10. Gee, all that and no shots fired!!!!

  11. What is cyber-security? Close the door and locking it. making surre only allowed people have keys to enter. Ensuring that only proper terms or allowed into the server. and lord please, alarms on anyone attempting to break in. Believe it or not sophisticated break-ins are or could inside jobs, or senior IT people are not doing their job in making sure all the doors are locked and no one can enter the wrong terms. The best and the brightest? OK.
