Conficker hits University of Utah

University of Utah officials say a computer virus has infected more than 700 campus computers. University health sciences spokesman Chris Nelson said the outbreak of the Conficker worm, which can slow computers and steal personal information, was first detected Thursday. The virus had infiltrated computers at the hospitals, medical school, and colleges of nursing, pharmacy and health. The newly discovered malware uses GitHub and Pastebin to house component code, and harbors 12 different initial attack vectors. The worm returned in recent attacks against web applications, IP cameras and routers.
