You have a backup plan to store your files.. just in case your main device is hacked... You think you are safe.... Yet, now there is another type of attack, a cyber attack, called Samas Ransomware that can and will decimate all of your backup files, so are you truly safe?

 Singapore's government has been the latest victim of a cyber crime. There has been a hack in the internet access (I-net) of the agency which has led to the access of personal data.  Investigations revealed that basic personal data, comprised of NRIC numbers, telephone numbers, and dates of birth of around 850 servicemen and employees was stolen from I-net.

The I-net system is an internet access system used by national servicemen and MINDEFF employees to send emails communication and for their internet surfing. The system allows their employees to use terminals within the ministry premises and SAF's (Singapore's Armed Forces) camps.
