As a home computer user it just astonishes me that Apple, Microsoft, the FBI, Department of Defense, the IRS, and even the NSA have been hacked.

To get into a hospitals system seems easier. I would bet there are computers on the network with a USB port open, and so many users that hated computers all along and resisted ever learning computers. They seem ripe for opening an email, or not check out where the email originated.

I am also surprised how no one has been able to reverse engineer the ransom ware software and decrypt the password, and track down the location of the hackers. Of course if they are in Russia, and Putin is behind it as we all suspect not much but a Mission Impossible like rendition is going to stop them. Not likely.
