Before starting reading I proceeding to indicate Microsoft articles, I hope companies will realize to invest more and more on security, IT Infrastructure and high professional IT guys.
Here it is Microsoft patch that was released, as zero days patch, description:

Wannacry uses precedent patch Microsoft vulnerabilities to attack windows pc that are exposed through internet with 445 port opened. (at least 1 Millions)
Once worm attach shared folder, it is in LAN and highly speed wormable.
Microsoft took unusual decision providing security patch users and customers with unsupported O.S. versions ( XP/Vista/2008/2003)
Here it is Patch Download link about all O.S. versions :

If you're running a vulnerable system and can't install the patch for some reason, Microsoft has two pieces of advice:
a. Disable SMBv1 with the steps documented at Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 2696547 and this ones.
A quick way to do that is going to this register key:
HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters\SMB1 and setting up it equal to 0
Otherwise you can review this article:

Some malware versions to be enable "kill Switch" need to have traffic enabled versus following URLs ( that is in some malware versions)
hxxp://www[.]iuqerfsodp9ifjaposdfjhgosurijfaewrwergwea[.]com
hxxp://www[.]ifferfsodp9ifjaposdfjhgosurijfaewrwergwea[.]com
indeed, to verify that pc is infected you need to search files with following extention:
.wncry
Worm has a kill-switch that block work once domain query is succesfully (www.iuqerfsodp9ifjaposdfjhgosurijfaewrwergwea.com) and was blocked due to a guy that registered domain name after reverse engineering, we suspect that next software version will no longer have this Kill-Switch command.
