    I'm sorry Home Secretary @UKHomeOffice, this is nonsense. The preparedness for this is inoculation: upgrades & patching, not #Cyber stuff.pic.twitter.com/idukXHvEkk

        Home Secretary @AmberRuddHR: HMG has been over-investing in offensive #cyber capability for more than 10 years. This is the price we pay.

        For Britain to have viable "cyber preparedness" we must pursue "herd immunity" as with vaccination; not merely "ethical hackers & filters"

        This is either disgusting ignorance, or disgusting lying.

        Can see this being used as justification for a Great Firewall when it is about financing infrastructure correctly.

        Replace unsupported OS's, apply contracted patches (and keep paying for them) and switch off old SMB protocols. There, now you're prepared.

        perhaps airgapping or migrating the vulnerable Windows XP systems would have been a good idea

        Or perhaps the NSA/GCHQ disclosed the vulnerability when they found it... back when Windows XP was still supported by Microsoft.
