ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity — Question 6

What share does the WannaCry ransomware use to connect with the target?

Answer options

• A. $IPC
• B. $Admin
• C. $SPOOL
• D. $C

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The WannaCry ransomware exploits the $IPC share to connect to its targets, allowing it to spread across networks. The other options, such as $Admin, $SPOOL, and $C, do not facilitate the same type of connection and are not used by WannaCry for its propagation.
