Just want to take some time to say thank you to everyone who's watching this video. The feedback in the past day has been overwhelmingly positive.
I genuinely worked really hard on this one and it's so heartwarming to see the amount of support I'm getting.
Special thanks to r/cybersecurity & r/hacking. You guys are amazing. I was testing out to see if this kind of content would be interesting, and I think from the feedback, it's safe to say that it is.
Do stay tuned for more.
Awesome documentary man, really hoping you put out some more at this level
Thank you so much & that's the plan!
Excellent work here! 🎉 Congratulations on gaining over 1k subscribers in such a short period! Very inspiring! Keep it up and you will change your whole life through this venture. Also, your English is great, which is very important and quite uncommon with non-native English speaking you tubers. I don’t even need closed captions 🙌🏼
I would love to see you make a video about your life and UA-cam journey.
Congratulations! Enjoy every moment of this journey! 😁🙏
Thank you so much for your kind words 🙏❤️ this honestly made my day, I'm so glad to hear that my accent isn't an issue when it comes to my content delivery.
I would love to make a video on my UA-cam journey, hopefully in the future! I truly appreciate the support.
@@TheTWSChannel Your reply made my day; so, thank you for returning the favor!
I don’t know your location, but I’m sending you love and my best wishes from Orlando, Florida, USA♥️🙏 *subscribed*
Love that you went into details and answered the "but why?"
Haha, I'm glad you appreciate that, thank you :')
this is ptsd from my english class oml
@@ellamuhleisen4171 ohh my greatest condolences, i have suffered the same fate and here is a tip, remember to use big brain words and bullshit your way thru 1000 words then add or remove depending on word limit
@@kakitoAki already on it 😭
To make massive mark! Epic wanker! Same epic dude who fixed the crap. Code monkeys, make sure you can clean up after yourselves
As a computer science student, I tell you this is an incredible documentary. It reminded me why I love the infosec field.
Hey man, glad it did :') stay tuned for more!
go away kid
I also studied computer science and now I am in last year Master cybersecurity… it’s getting hotter and hotter 😂
@@Cybersecuritystudent1998what modules are you studying
And what level was your programming at before pursuing your masters
@@johnmorrison3560 before going to Master cybersecurity, I know good enough how to code in C/C++, Python, Assembly Language.
In cybersecurity we are learning, cryptography in Python, network analysis, network engineering, programming with python automated programs for malware analysis and many more.
great work. as someone who is studying cybersecurity this not only hits points I'm learning about but opening up other ideas. Not only does this kind of content motivating for me as someone who wants to work against this type of ransomware, It also is deeply concerning as to what may be lying around the corner for the next big attack.
I'm so glad to be getting such feedback :') the kind of attacks we will have to deal with in the future is definitely, deeply concerning. I can only hope that our security evolves accordingly as well.
May be we will be discussing AI based threats in next few years. My prediction as a budding cyber safety enthusiast and student.
@@udayandutta3121 😅oh man we already are
@@udayandutta3121 A big but very temporary scare was recently created with the use of AI in a fake video where joe biden is enlisting people to war against Russia. It was definitely extremely real considering it's only the beginning of what's to come..
@@TheTWSChannel we all need to get offline
The fact that you’re not even at 1.5k but have actual good content
Haha, thanks man. It's a struggle but I'm trying 🙏
Now he has 3k
And still too few.
Right dude
@@TheTWSChannel your channel is fkn amazing and helped me SOOOO much.. u deserve so many more views!
I was navigated from reddit post... and in first 2 mins you had all my attention..i immediately dropped everything to watch whole 30 mins ... keep doing such videos mate !!!
Damn bro, thank you so much :')! I'm so glad it's engaging enough to keep you interested.
I plan to keep making this kind of content, so yes, please do stay tuned!
Everyone was
This is by far the best Wannacry documentary I've seen. Informational and straight to the point without unnecessary creepy clips added in which break immersion. I'm surprised this is your first documentary-style video! It doesn't seem like it. And I like the educational aspect! I'm only in highschool but I'm aspiring to be involved in computer science so I know a fair amount about at least how it works, so it wasn't confusing for me and I actually doubt it would be confusing for most people. It's a nice mix of understandable enough that anyone can get it, and advanced enough that people with knowledge on the subject are learning something from it.
Cracking production quality, technical enough for most people without going too deep. I am keen to see what you come up with next.
Two thumbs up mate. 👍👍
Thanks for your kind words man! 🙏❤️ I genuinely appreciate it
I heard that some guy was making a book when he got the virus. He couldn’t pay in 7 days so he had to wait the 6 months. he actually got it back and finished the book 3 years later.
Excellently made documentary! Sadly it didn't surprise me that hospitals ended up being the most heavily damaged by Wannacry. I used to deliver and setup medical devices like ultrasounds, retinal scanners and such, and almost all of them were running bespoke software in kiosk mode on top of a Windows XP (and later Win7) build that had automatic updates disabled, since obviously having one of these machines decide to reboot itself in the middle of a procedure could be quite unfortunate. There's still a lot of these machines out there and I imagine they still haven't received any updates, since the software they run often depends on a specific build of Windows to work properly, so the threat of a second round is very much a real one.
Oh gosh medical technology is such a infoseq hazard. In my lab we have a machine that runs on some old version of iOS that IT begrudgingly allows as long as it is never connected to any network ever. Analyzers and other machines can run anywhere from $10k to $500k in the lab, so if the OS is outdated you just deal with it
This kind of content is exactly what I look for; concise and straight to the point, no gimmicks. Really good research you’ve done man, keep up the good work!
cool doc, I remember I worked at an airline company as security supervisor when this happened and we had 11 hours shift that night, it was awful, the snapshot were infected as well and when they restored previous version they would keep spreading the worm around the network
Oh yeah, it had no mercy when it came to how fast it could spread. I can only imagine what the damage would've been like if it wasn't for the kill switch.
Thanks for watching and sharing your story!
Stumbled across this video while watching other documentary style videos on this kind of stuff. I am a computer science student and have always enjoyed watching these types of videos to learn about and understand how these types of things happen and are shut down. I want to be one of the people who maybe helps either prevent these things entirely or helps to shut them down. Your video was awesome. Keep it up.
Just read this was your first doc & had to tell you I was shocked. You definitely have a talent for this! I thought it was a presentation from a large media company.
very well made and top notch editing. keep up the good work. You always have my support.....
Thanks Jassim! I really appreciate it ❤️
Incredible doc! I could watch this twice, or even 2 hours of this type of content. You are doing amazing and you will for sure always gain more and more views and subs, even if it's not super quick. I'm also a cybersec student and this video has reminded me why i love this field in a time where I'm struggling about my academic path.
Just a bit of criticism on presentation that has likely already been echoed to death:
1) The length of the silent transitions between segments is a bit much - to the point where at least once I thought playback had stopped; fellow documentary UA-cam channel "Down the Rabbit Hole" tends to mitigate such intervals with music played at an increased volume - which happens to let the viewer know that playback of the video has not stopped (at least in my case as here the audio was apparently too low to otherwise hear the music during the transitions, particularly when compared to the volume of the narrator's voice).
2) A much more minor one - the special effects seem to sometimes be emphasised over presentability; this is most noticeable towards the start of the video with a timeline that doesn't show in its entirety at once but rather switches positions around the screen as it also switches focus between individual parts of the timeline.
Hope this is suitably constructive. Many thanks for making this video - the informative nature of it is much appreciated!
Hi! Thank you so much for the detailed feedback on the video. I've noted these issues down and will definitely be using them to improve as I go along ❤️ thank you!
@@TheTWSChannel Cool, thanks! I hope for your future success. :)
This video came up on my recommened. For your first documentary, this is brilliant! Can't wait to watch the rest of your videos.

Awesome video and well put together on the attack. Very good. Publish this in more forums. Looking forward to your next one.
Hey John! Thank you so much! Do you have any ideas what kind of forums I can post it on?
Damn dude good job, this definitely deserves more views
Thank you so much! This means a lot :')
Fantastic production value on this Shaan.
Loved the timeline feel on how it started and especially how it worked with the kill switch and why.
Great job as always mate.
Thanks Richard! Happy to see that you're still sticking around after my content changed!
Glad to have your support
This popped up on my recommended and I wanted to learn more about this cyberattack. Really good documentary. Will check out more of your work for sure.
You’re bringing awareness to many people who need to know about the safety of their digital lives. Thank you 🤝🏽👏🏽🙌🏽
Thank you so much TechWithShaan. I really had little to no idea how these malicious softwares attack the victim machine or how they propagate so quick, but you answered many questions in detail.
I really appreciate your hard work that's evident of the depth of knowledge, clarity and proofs that's there in your video.
Please do keep making such contents🙂🙂.
Cutting out unexplained jargon. Extremely informative, explaining the knock on effects and following up with positive solutions. Well Done! With cyber crime on the increase this creates much needed awareness.
I found myself binge watching your videos this morning over many cups of coffee. I love your calm, yet mysterious presentation. Your voice, graphics, and music all work together very well to maintain interest and curiosity for more. I’m sad to see you don’t have many videos on your channel, hope to see more soon. Keep up the great work.
