Destroying your hard drive is the only way to stop this super-advanced malware

Destroying your hard drive is the only way to stop this super-advanced malware | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

The Equation Group's attack on hard-drive firmware is one of the most advanced ever discovered, Kaspersky Lab said.

Kaspersky Lab released a report Monday that said the tools were created by the “Equation” group, which it stopped short of linking to the U.S. National Security Agency

The tools, exploits and malware used by the group—named after its penchant for encryption—have strong similarities with NSA techniques described in top-secret documents leaked in 2013.
