Would you rather: 1) Have your vulnerable systems taken offline w/o warning by whitehat (with note on how to patch) 2) Get crypto-ransom

option 1: large damage in small amount of cases, option 2: unknown damage in unknown but growing cases
-
hard equation to tackle
-
The reports I'm seeing in main stream media on option 2 are of large damage in many cases, both rising fast.
-
And I didn't include other kinds of cyber crime, which only makes the case for option 1 stronger.
-
I don't disagree, I just don't know if anyone wants to take on that risk
-
AFAIK you'd be braking the law if you did this. Government would have to be involved if you ever wanted to implement this.
-
but what's the next step? Do you install RAT and keep them patched? Leave a doc about good security practices and backups?
-
Next step would be small scale experiments on volunteers to see what works and what does not.
