Windows Defender Update for Petya Ransomware

Microsoft sent out a new Windows Defender definition file that includes the Petya ransomware yesterday. If you get regular updates, it should already be updated on your PC.

If you don't use automatic updates, you should run your copy of Windows Defender and update now.

The same applies to all anti-virus and anti-malware program. Unless you're automatically updated, update manually NOW!
