Fifty-five speed and red-light cameras in the Australia’s state of Victoria were infected with the WannaCry ransomware last week. The incident took place last week and was brought to light by a local radio station. A human operator connected an infected USB to the devices, which were apparently running on a Windows OS. Authorities say the cameras remained online and continued to function, albeit they rebooted every few minutes. A spokesperson for the Victoria Justice and Regulation Department confirmed the incident on Monday. The remaining sites will be rectified in the next couple of days.
