Cybersecurity Alert: Microsoft’s 6-Month Patch Delay on Windows Rootkit Flaw Exploited by North Korean Hackers
Keyphrase: “Notorious North Korean hackers” Even Notorious North Korean hackers can’t rush Microsoft—Lazarus Group found the rootkit ‘holy grail’ but Redmond took a chill pill, patching it only after a six-month Windows siesta. 🐌💤🛡️ #CybersecuritySloth
Hot Take:
North Korean hackers found the cybersecurity equivalent of Willy Wonka's golden ticket in Windows, and Microsoft, playing the role of a particularly lax factory gatekeeper, took a leisurely six-month stroll before fixing the gaping hole. Meanwhile, Apple's keeping the doctor away with a fresh batch of updates, and the NSA is handing out cloud security advice like Oprah giving away cars. "You get a security tip! And you get a security tip! Everybody gets a security tip!" Also, Jordanian women are getting a cybersecurity boost, because it's high time the InfoSec workforce gets a splash of much-needed diversity!
