The Conficker worm emerged in November 2008, rapidly spreading to 1.5 million computers across 195 countries within a month. Its reach extended to banks, telecommunications, and vital government networks, including the British Parliament and military systems in France and Germany. By January 2009, it was concealed in at least eight million computers, forming a massive botnet capable of launching an attack that could potentially disrupt global operations. This unprecedented event highlighted the vulnerabilities in digital security and the far-reaching implications of cyber threats.
