While we are close to seeing the light at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel, there is no sign that the work-from-home trend it created will be coming to an end soon.
Even prior to the pandemic, the number of employees who work remotely has been rising continuously. In fact, 36.2 million Americans (22% of the workforce) will be working remotely by 2025.

Windows 10 makes it easy to connect to a network and the internet using a wired or wireless connection. However, sometimes, you may still need to manage settings manually or troubleshoot connectivity problems, and this is when the many built-in command-line tools can come in handy.

The Ryuk scourge has a new trick in its arsenal: Self-replication via SMB shares and port scanning.
A new version of the Ryuk ransomware is capable of worm-like self-propagation within a local network, researchers have found.
The variant first emerged in Windows-focused campaigns earlier in 2021, according to the French National Agency for the Security of Information Systems (ANSSI). The agency said that it achieves self-replication by scanning for network shares, and then copying a unique version of the ransomware executable (with the file name rep.exe or lan.exe) to each of them as they’re found.
“Ryuk looks for network shares on the victim IT infrastructure. To do so, some private IP ranges are scanned: 10.0.0.0/8; 172.16.0.0/16; and 192.168.0.0/16,” according to a recent ANSSI report. “Once launched, it will thus spread itself on every reachable machine on which Windows Remote Procedure Call accesses are possible.”
