- Send this page to your IT person.Ask them to confirm it’s fixed (fixed in version 7.4.4 of Wing FTP Server), or not in use. CISA gave US government agencies until 30 Mar 2026 to fix it.
- If it can’t be fixed, take it offline.CISA’s advice when there’s no fix is to stop using the product, or take it off the internet, until there is one.
You can’t fix someone else’s server, but you can watch for what follows a break-in like this: a breach notice, a password reset you didn’t ask for, or a scam message that knows things it shouldn’t. HARD watches for those for you and your family.
