The MongoDB ransomware problem is more widespread than first reported, but the good news is that the problem can be prevented by following proper MongoDB security practices when setting it up. It's also worth pointing out that MongoDB is a cross-platform service, so this problem can impact on Linux server security, Windows server security, MacOS server security, and Solaris server security.

In some cases, you might not want for a network service to run at all times. By creating a systemd static file on your Linux server, you can have a network service only start whenever it detects an incoming connection request.

For the demo in this video, installed the micro-httpd webserver on a Raspberry Pi that's running Ubuntu Server 18.04.
