The SQL Slammer Worm – PID Perspectives Have you ever wondered what the most destructive malware is? In January 2003, a computer worm became the fastest-spreading worm in Internet history, infecting 75,000 systems in ten minutes. That’s the SQL Slammer Worm, also known as Sapphire. It exploited a single software vulnerability known as buffer overflow.

The SQL Slammer worm was the fastest spreading malware in Internet history. Today, it is considered the precursor of ransomware and spyware attacks.

The Morris Worm – PID Perspectives Have you ever wondered how the first cyberattack in history happened? The Morris Worm was released on November 2, 1988, in the early days of the Internet. It was created by Robert Tappan Morris, a graduate student at Cornell University, who had no idea that a mistake in his code would create havoc on the Internet. 

The Morris worm is the first known cyberattack in history. Oddly enough, it wasn't meant to be malicious: a mistake in the code caused the software to go rogue. Here's how it happened.

How Stuxnet changed cyberwarfare – PID Perspectives For a long time, people have thought of the Internet as a completely separate world from reality. It was difficult to conceive that something that happened online could physically harm anyone. That concept changed in 2010, when Stuxnet demonstrated that malware can cause physical damage to critical infrastructure, not just steal data or crash systems. 

Stuxnet was one of the most relevant cases in cyberwarfare history: here's how the US and Israel sabotaged an Iranian nuclear facility with a deadly computer worm.
