I'm continuing to follow this story as this whole issue of technological vulnerability is of great interest - and concern - to me.
One of the bigger problems that the authorities are having is determining who is behind this major attack on South Korea and it's banking system and television networks. Apparently, it's estimated that it will take another 5 days to restore functionality and somewhere in the range of 32,000 computers were affected in South Korea.
This is serious stuff and I think it is just the tip of the iceberg. I'm willing to bet that there are many occasions where there have been similar attacks that have not been publicized for fear of eroding confidence in the technology or services.
