If you have a QNAP NAS, stop what you're doing right now and install latest updates

QNAP has urged its customers to install and run its latest firmware and malware removal tools on their Network-attached storage (NAS) boxes amid a surge in ransomware infections.

Two file-scrambling nasties, Qlocker and eCh0raix, are said to be tearing through vulnerable QNAP storage equipment, encrypting data and demanding ransoms to restore the information.

In response, QNAP said on Thursday users should do this to avoid falling victim to this malware.
