    If @NSAGov had privately disclosed the flaw used to attack hospitals when they *found* it, not when they lost it, this may not have happenedhttps://twitter.com/Snowden/status/863108616773095425 …

    In light of today's attack, Congress needs to be asking @NSAgov if it knows of any other vulnerabilities in software used in our hospitals.

        The leaked exploit files are dated 2010. They probably had them much longer than that.

        Folks stole it and sold it. Wikileaks disclosed that it had been stolen and sold. Should have been repaired same day Wiki disclosed.

        Likely would still have needed Microsoft to produce an XP patch after support ended. Many NHS machines still running XP, no patch exists.

        Patch exists via "custom" (aka extended, and very $$) support agreements. NHS let licenses expire.

        when they _found out_ they lost it. It's entirely possible that other entities had a hold of this even earlier than the leakers.

        If they disclose it, then how can they use it?
