Zerobot malware targets a wide range of vulnerable devices – are your devices on the list?

From online CCTV cameras to popular router modems, Zerobot malware is infecting devices that have not been patched to build a network to carry out distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS).

New Zerobot malware has 21 exploits for BIG-IP, Zyxel, D-Link devices (bleepingcomputer.com)

The Bleeping Computer article has the details of the vulnerabilities and some of the devices being exploited.

My advice: Either you or your IT support need to check whether these issues impact your systems. You need to have a master document that details your systems, hardware, software, online, networks, back-ups, suppliers etc – so when cyber security (or operational) issues arise you and your support teams can quickly check if you are affected. From there you can take fast, effective action.
