   Hello!

   Europe's Largest Private Hospital Operator Fresenius Hit by Ransomware   
      
   Fresenius, Europe's largest private hospital operator and a major provider   
   of dialysis products and services that are in such high demand thanks to   
   the COVID-19 pandemic, has been hit in a ransomware cyber attack on its   
   technology systems.   
      
   ==[end===   
      
      
   The article doesn't report HOW the ransomeware got triggered.   
      
   But if it was by some cleverly disguised email/link originally in an     
   employee's email, why can't the outbound email servers be configured to     
   only allow valid domains? ..and thus sending the bogus ones to the bit     
   bucket.   
      
   WRT Email: Employees at places of work like the article describes,     
   shouldn't even have access to email other than to company-related     
   addresses.   
      
   WRT WWW: An employee shouldn't even be able to access links that are     
   designed to be phish-bait.   
      
   Can't a company's local servers simply block all www domains except the     
   ones approved?   
      
   Eg. People at work don't need to access Facebook or expose company     
   computers to malicious sites.
