Long time followers will know I’ve been using coinstallers to get admin rights on Windows (including remotely) for about 5 years. Somebody has finally documented how it works. No patch, this bit of the Windows ecosystem is just poor.
The biggest problem I’ve had with fighting ransomware over the past 5 years is private cyber companies basically lobbying for nothing to change. A lot of companies have made a lot of money, so putting them in charge of stopping it seems optimistic.

Outsourcing the fight against ransomware to the companies that directly profit from it and giving them more profit seems potentially problematic.
Namecheap.com says a power outage affecting a data center in Phoenix is causing network issues and outages across its hosting services, DNS service, private email, EasyWP, and support helpdesk. Oh, and namecheap.com is also down for "emergency maintenance."
