Europol spokesperson Jan Op Gen
Oorth said Monday that "no new ransomware infections have been
registered" after last week's large-scale cyber-attacks. "This
is a positive message. It means that, at the weekend, with the
attack alert on a global scale, people took action to update the
security of devices," he said, adding that around 200,000
computers had been infected in 150 countries and the ransom
requests were around 300 euros. Europol told users not to pay.
