Did your smart thermostat contribute to last week’s big cyberattack?
Oct 2016: a hacker named Anna-Senpai releases the source-code of one of the most effective malware that targets IoT devices, Mirai (未来). It gains control of tens of thousands routers, security cameras, and other smart devices by bruteforce guessing their admin username and password. Anyone with a few hours spare time can now create their own botnet by following Mirai tutorials on Youtube.
In a leaked skype chat between Anna-Senpai and one of his cyberattack victims they talk internet security and eventually end up discussing anime. He admits to naming his virus after the anime series Mirai Nikki.
