Security experts have found a'vaccine' for the ransomware that has been causing chaos around the world. It was initially thought to be a variant of known malware Petya, but is now claimed to be a completely new infection, which Kaspersky has dubbed'NotPetya'. However, it's still widely being referred to as'Petya', as well as'Petna' and even'SortaPetya'. It has affected a number of large organisations around the world, including WPP in the UK.
