Hackers accidentally send their malicious code to Microsoft
- Transfer
According to one of the senior security architects, Rocky Heckman,
When in the process of developing viruses, the viruses themselves fall into error, the code is often sent directly to Microsoft.
When a hacker application crashes on Windows, as with all typical crashes, the system will prompt the user to send details of the error - including malicious code - to Microsoft.
As Heckman noted, the funniest thing is that many press "Submit."
“People send us the virus code when it constantly crashes during development,” says Heckman.
“It's amazing how much material we collect.”
