🐧 Discovering Omarchy: A Developer’s New Favorite Linux Distro I’ve spent most of my career hopping between ecosystems — building .NET applications from WebForms to .NET Core, writing automation scripts, working with Linux servers, experimenting with security tooling, and occasionally breaking things on purpose in the name of learning.

Petya is a malware family first discovered in 2016 that targeted Microsoft Windows systems. The original Petya strain encrypted key disk structures (such as the master file table), blocked normal boot, and demanded a Bitcoin ransom.
Early Petya campaigns were distributed through phishing emails that delivered malicious attachments. Later variants evolved in delivery and behavior.
In 2017, the NotPetya outbreak spread through a compromised update mechanism for Ukrainian accounting software (MeDoc) and then moved across networks using the EternalBlue exploit and credential-based lateral movement tools.
