You can see that there has been hacks of synology products, right?


You are trolling me, yes? Next you will say Crytolocker is a Windows vulnerability (that is not to say that Windows does not have vulnerabilities).


The problem is that Synology has historically not been very proactive at informing and educating their users about security threats, including very specific ones like this. A company that specializes in selling advanced network appliances to novice users and non-IT pros has a certain obligation to those users, IMHO.

PayPal has been described as "a fraud detection company that also transfers money." That's how Synology needs to think of themselves.
