Hello. If you haven’t already seen this in the news, the ShadowBrokers group has released the collection of NSA Windows exploits they claimed to have obtained. Various members of the information security community have already verified that this dump is legitimate. This dump has given a toolbox of ready to use exploits to anyone who wishes to download them now. Many of the tools target older versions of Windows and IIS, but many institutions still have world facing services that fall into the affected scope. I wanted to bring this to everyone’s attention in case anyone had missed it.
