Cyber Talpeş: what major change prepares the math teacher, Co-founder Bitdefender, considered the public enemy number 1 of hackers

No week after the most virulent IT attack this year, Florin Talpeş (60) speaks of his own as a little one from his minimalist office on Delea Veche Street in Bucharest.
Survivors might say that WannaCry, the worm that infected 230,000 computers in 150 states (including in Romania), is an opportunity for a security software vendor.
For Talpeş, the attack by which unknown criminals have asked individual victims to pay up to $ 17,000 to unlock infected documents is just business as usual.
"Ransomware (the technical name of the software that spread panic across the globe, n.r.) exploded last year," says Talpeş, CEO of a company that customers pay to "guess" the dangers before they become reality.
Redemption demanded by attackers increased, on average, from nearly $ 300 in 2015 to $ 1,077 last year, according to a study by Symantec's US security firm, quoted by The Economist.
"2016 was the year of ransomware," says another study signed this t
ime by Bitdefender itself, with Romanian specialists estimating the global damage caused by these attacks to over one billion dollars. "Developers of a certain type of ransomware have managed to raise $ 1.5 million in just a week," says Cătălin Coşoi, head of Bitdefender's Cyber Investigation Team.
FT. Coșoi(security software engineer) was alongside Talpeş, the company's star in the week after the attack.
His views appeared in a first page article in the May 16 edition of the Financial Times. "We think the" WannaCry authors "are amateurs," Coșoi said, mistaking some assumptions that Russian hackers, US secret services, or the government of Pyongyang would be behind the attack.
Also on May 16, the Financial Times also publishes a podcast (audio report) about Romanian success (read Bitdefender's success) in cyber security.
