The list of hacked organisations lists the Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. However, citation 141, which is used for the Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, cites a cybernetic attack that was sent as a fake message from NATO. While the date of the cited article corresponds with the WannaCry attack, the article does not mention WannaCry and does not mention ransomware at all. Furthermore, a Google search does not show any evidence of the virus being WannaCry.

I'd like to change sentence 5 of paragraph 1.
"These patches were imperative to an organization's cyber-security but many were not applied because of neglect, ignorance, mismanagement, or a misunderstanding about their importance."
The information is good but it is phrased a little oddly. I think a shorter sentence might be more clear.
For example we could do something like:
"These patches were imperative to organizations' cyber security but many were not implemented due to general ignorance of their importance."
