Another Ransomware Outbreak Is Going Global
The article says the ransomware affects even patched Windows boxes. Perhaps what you mean to say is, "Great. Maybe we can finally put a price on using Windows."

Patched machines are affected, but they probably weren't the initial entry point. We still rely too much on having a single line of defense.

My understanding is that patched computers are only affected via pass-the-hash from an unpatched computer.

Yes, a zero-day is no excuse for a lack of defense in depth.
