Oh dear, you have been so naive. For some childish reason, you thought that the modern day viruses are not going to develop and evolve. You really need to be one hell of a brainiac to come up with a successful malicious software solution. The call of the dark-cyber-side can be a huge temptation.

Meet the latest, brightest and deadliest member of the growing malicious family called – Rombertik. This fellow has a remarkable AI potential. Some even dare to classify it as a self-aware malware. So, what does it do? What is so special and dangerous about it? Are you ready for some bad news?

Well, while at “work” this malware is in a “regular” mode for any malicious software. It steals away your financial data, while doing its best to keep a low profile. On the other side, as soon as you run an antivirus software, Rombertik strikes back in an unprecedented way.

This malware would rather destroy itself including your precious device. Now, you get it. This is a genuine and a deadly Kamikaze virus. Unfortunately, there is no much you can do about it. If lucky enough, you can reinstall your computer. Otherwise, Rombertik will make you buy a new one.

It may sound a little bit unorthodox, but in the world of cyber security a debate is actually a positive thing to witness first-hand. So, who has a responsibility of pushing the security things in the right direction? Some fingers pointing impatiently and with expectations in the Congress’ direction.

Do we really need a legislative “motivation” to improve the security standards associated with our credit cards and available online payment solutions? As you might have guessed from the enclosed picture in this post, there is no opinion free of dispute nor controversy.

Business representative would gladly accept the push from the Congress in this field. On the other side, the busy little bees behind the cyber security industry are surprisingly up to a more flexible approach. Why? If there is a law, there has to be some responsibility, as well. Right?

We sure hope that the hackers will not take an advantage of this ridiculous situation where two sides are arguing over a simple and painfully obvious thing. You do not have to go to Congress, in order to achieve security progress, do you? Or, maybe there is no other way?

Here it goes. We have a bad and a less bad news for you. Why do you look so surprised? Take this innocent look off your face. Right now. There is no such a thing as a good news in the heartbreaking world of cyber security. So, which one of these two, you want to hear first?

Let us start with the bad one. There are some really nasty cyber guys, called the Kamikaze Viruses. You do not have to be a rocket scientist to know what these malicious busy little cyber bugs are all about, do you? They destroy both themselves and your computer as well. So, what now?

The only positive thing in this situation is that there are not too many of these killers. They are simply too bad for the business. What is the use for a hacker, if he or she kills your machine straight away? However, this does not mean that you will not hear banzai at some point in time.

So, what can you do about it? Buy yourself a new cyber ride. What else? In the meantime, think twice before you open a suspicious attachment. Yes, cyber boys and girls your own private Kamikaze Virus is not going to come out of the blue. You will hear gentle knocking on your door.
