THE EXPLOIT CANNOT BE USED ON A NETWORK THAT DOESNT HAVE SMB PORT OPEN . and most consumer or even bussiness rarely OPEN THE SMB PORT because if they want to transfer file i think most of them are using FTP or cloud storage like google drive , dropbox , etc
in my theory there are 2 reason that people get infected by wannacry through the network
1.the network administrator want to open some port but they lazy enough so they open all port
2. they open the SMB port because they need it to use SMB outside the LAN
the reason no.1 is much more make sense but even though they open the port if your windows is up to date and also close the SMBv1 you probably safe
that iw my opinion ? what yours comment below
Everyone is scared of using internet these days. People say to be aware of FBI etc spying on you. There are many companies who advertise VPNs now...
