My autobiography cannot be a tragedy

Chapter 368

"Overseas attack signal?"

Meng Lang looked puzzled.

[Yes, according to the source of the attack signal, it is preliminarily judged that the foreign attack source is manipulating domestic Memcached to execute a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) traffic attack, and is trying to overload the target server with junk Internet traffic.

The attack peak traffic is as high as 1.94Tbps, triggering your preset network attack alarm.

This attack is not aimed at our affiliated companies, and the threat to our affiliated companies is zero. Do you want to ignore it? 】

neglect?

You let me ignore such a big commotion?This is against human nature!

Meng Lang casually opened a bag of unpalatable melon seeds and asked with great interest.

"Which company is under attack?"

[The Second Research Institute of Huahang Science and Technology. 】

"Huahang Science and Technology? It sounds like a military enterprise engaged in aerospace technology, right?" Meng Lang was immediately taken aback.

[According to public information, Huahang Science and Technology Group is a large state-owned high-tech enterprise directly managed by the central government.

Its Second Research Institute is the largest missile development and production unit in China. 】

"Ok?"

Missile development and production unit?

In the middle of the night, the purpose of foreign hackers attacking this kind of military industrial unit is self-evident, and it must be targeting the military information in the server.

Although I already have a "CNMD" defense system that far surpasses this era, it will have to be updated sooner or later, but if the good things in my home are taken away by others...

It should be said that if the hostile forces get some incredible offensive missile technology, isn't this making it more difficult for them to defend themselves?

In terms of overall strategy, the night demons are the enemies of mankind, but in terms of local strategies, the enemies are not only the night demons...

Meng Lang asked with the intention of resolutely making trouble for what the enemy wanted to do.

"If we help, will we expose ourselves?"

Trouble is trouble, and the principle of safety first must be unswervingly implemented.

[According to data monitoring, at least four different forces are currently involved in this network offensive and defensive battle, and the two sides are engaged in a scuffle.

With the difference in our technology, the probability of being discovered through the intervention of the springboard is infinitely close to zero. 】

"Then what are you waiting for, go ahead and see the excitement!"

【Yes! 】

……

The Second Research Institute of Huahang Science and Technology, the central control room.

At this time, blood-red pop-up windows of "Warning!" popped up on dozens of large screens, and many windows were even completely blacked out.

And the staff at the scene were already in a mess.

"what happened?"

Zhao Yan, director of the research institute with somewhat messy clothes, hurried in from the outside.

"We are under attack from an unknown hacker and the server has become unresponsive."

The on-site network security technical director was typing on the keyboard quickly, while reporting profusely.

"What?!" Zhao Yan's back immediately burst into cold sweat.

There are a lot of top-secret military technology in the servers of the Second Research Institute, and there are even newly developed ones...

Once leaked, the consequences would be disastrous!

"How could this be? Isn't our internal network physically isolated from the external network?"

"It's a cyber espionage tool! According to our preliminary judgment, our intranet was probably invaded by the other party a few months ago.

The other party did not do it immediately, but left some hidden modules on our server, including keyloggers, file stealers and remote access software..."

"A few months ago? What on earth did your network security department do!" Zhao Yan was furious when he heard this.

But he knew that this was not the time to seek responsibility.

"How is the situation now?"

"We found that the other party used two completely different tools and methods during the intrusion process, and the attackers are likely to be from two different organizations.

At present, the other party has invaded our internal network through the pre-buried loopholes, and used a large number of DDOS attacks to block our channel to cover the intrusion.

Although we have taken emergency measures to physically block it as soon as we discovered it, but..."

"But what?" Zhao Yan's heart tightened.

"But before that, the other party is suspected to have stolen more than 18G of important information from the core server, which... may also include some test data of DF-17..."

"What?!" Zhao Yan's eyes darkened.

He knows that the current cyber weapons have already achieved partial automation and intelligence, and there is often not much time left for people to react from the attack to the end.

By the time you realize you've been attacked, things may be irreparable.

But if you know it, you know it, but you can't accept this cruel reality in your heart.

That's a DF-17 ballistic missile!
Its breakthrough is that the terminal speed can reach up to 20 times the speed of sound...

In other words, this is the world's first supersonic ballistic missile!
This is a national heavy weapon that will be officially unveiled at the 70th anniversary military parade next year. If the flight data is stolen by foreign countries...

Thinking of the consequences, Zhao Yan only felt a little dizzy in his brain.

"What about your countermeasures?" His tone was full of anger.

"We have notified the Network Security Department to request rapid support, and implemented an emergency power outage, switched the backup server, and are currently regaining authority through the preset firewall tools and trying to launch a counterattack..."

The technical director's answer was not convincing.

After all, they did their calculations mentally and unintentionally. They responded hastily, and they couldn't even find everyone in the middle of the night. One can imagine the strength of this counterattack.

Zhao Yan is not a network security technician. Although he is anxious to get angry, he can only wait anxiously for the final result...

"Huh?" Hearing the surprise from the technical director, he immediately became nervous.

"what happened?"

The supervisor pointed to the screens in front of him with some surprise, which were rapidly returning from the red warning interface to the normal blue operation interface.

"The spam traffic attacks we suffer are rapidly decreasing, and various modules are quickly returning to normal!
It seems... It seems that someone is helping, quickly blocking the opponent's attack path..."

"Is there someone to help? Is it someone from the Network Security Department?" Zhao Yan seemed to be grasping at the last straw.

"Not sure, but it must be a friendly army...uh..."

However, before he finished speaking, the joy on his face froze.

Just because the blue operation interface that just returned to normal in front of me is completely blacking out at a faster speed!

"What's the situation?" Zhao Yan felt a little bad in his heart.

The technical supervisor didn't have time to answer at all, and was typing defensive instructions on the keyboard desperately with sweat on his forehead.

And the next second...

His computer also went black...

director:"……"

Zhao Yan: "..."

Looking at the dimmed control screens in the control center, Director Zhao grabbed the technical supervisor by the collar and roared.

"Didn't you just say that this is a friendly army?"

"No... not a friendly army, the other party was just trying to snatch the attack path that belonged to the original attacker..."

The technical supervisor had a bitter face, wanting to cry but no tears.

At the same time, I was extremely shocked.

In such a short period of time, not only did the original two attackers completely squeeze out of the battlefield, but they even used the attack path left by the attackers to defeat their own defense at an incredible speed...

Simply put, both sides were cleared...

In front of the first wave of attackers, the firewall still occupies a part of the ground, but in front of the second wave of attackers, it is like a piece of mud, and it will be defeated in one blow!
It's like encountering two groups of bandits on your own road. There are wolves in front and tigers in the back. The other party is robbing, and suddenly a group of mysterious people come out halfway.

Cut melons and vegetables directly to kill the bandits!
As a result, I just wanted to call Daxia 666, but he chopped me down with a single knife...

I thought it was reinforcements, but I didn't expect that it was the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole!

What's even more frightening is that this kind of latecomer first come first, crushing the strength of the audience...

Even he, a senior technician who has been immersed in network security for many years, can only feel deep fear and despair in front of this new intruder.

"Director, we..." He wanted to report the frustrating results to Zhao Yan in despair.

However, the next moment, all the screens in the control center that had just turned black turned back on!
Then, a line of words slowly appeared on the screen——

[Borrow the sword and use it! 】

The sudden change made everyone stunned.

"What... what do you mean?" Zhao Yan was at a loss.

The technical director also had question marks on his forehead, and hurriedly tried to operate the computer in front of him, only to be delighted to find that he still had some permissions.

"Boss, the other party doesn't seem to show any intention to attack, but is just mobilizing the computing resources of our data center... and then following the attack path just now..."

When he said this, his eyes gradually widened.

"What's the situation?" Zhao Yan asked anxiously.

How can you say half of what you say?

"He...he seems to be using our server as a springboard to attack the first two groups of intruders..."

"What?" Zhao Yan was stunned.

Everyone present was stunned.

"Borrowing a sword to use it" actually means this?
He thought it was a friendly army, but he backhanded himself with a backstab.

I thought it was an enemy at first, but people said they just came to "borrow a sword"...

"Then what's going on now?"

Zhao Yan didn't bother to find out whether this mysterious force was an enemy or a friend. He was eager to know what the other party wanted to do.

The technical director looked at the stream of data on the screen, struggling to distinguish the offensive and defensive trends of the two sides.

"Gu~" He swallowed, and was speechless for a long time.

In the end, I only pulled a poem...

"Kill a person in ten steps, and leave a thousand miles behind!"

Zhao Yan: "???"

……

On the other side of the ocean at this moment.

CIA director Najib is celebrating with a group of hackers.

This operation was carefully planned for half a year, mobilized a number of elite agents, spent a lot of money, and secretly reached a joint operation with another hacker organization APT28 in the Northland.

The purpose is to steal a top-level military technical data in the Second Research Institute of Huahang Science and Technology.

The world's top two hacker organizations have joined forces, and this action plan has achieved unprecedented success!
Najib had a proud face, and the golden slogan on the background wall behind him was shining brightly under the light.

We can lag behind, but we can steal!
"How long will it take to get the data?" Najib asked, unable to suppress the joy on his face.

"Report to the director, it will take about 3 minutes for the data packet to be sent back to us through the covert path." A hacker replied.

"Very good! Finish it as soon as possible! In order to celebrate the complete success of this operation, I announce that everyone's bonus will be doubled this month, and we will have another week of vacation!"

"Oh yeah!" "Long live the director!"

The whole place is boiling.

however……

"Report to the director, something seems wrong!"

A discordant voice interrupted the carnival of the crowd.

"what's wrong?"

"Someone suddenly blocked all our attack paths, making it impossible for us to continue attacking each other."

"Huh?" Najib frowned, and then relaxed his brows again.

"It seems that the network security department of the other party has reacted, and it is quite capable to block our attack path so quickly.

But a done deal, they came too late.

Since there is nothing to fish for, let's withdraw, the harvest tonight is enough, hehe..."

"No! Director, the opponent is counterattacking us along our attack path, and the attack is very fierce!
Do not!Not only us, but APT28 also received a counterattack! "

"What?" Najib was stunned for a moment, then laughed angrily.

How dare you dare to attack both of them at the same time. Huaguo's network security department really thinks they are invincible?

"Then give them some color!" Najib ordered.

However, in less than 1 minute...

"This is impossible!"

"Oh selling cakes! All my broilers have been controlled by the other party!"

"Our channel is blocked by DDOS, unable to enter effectively..."

"Not good! Our data packet! The other party wants to intercept our data transmission process! Stop him!"

"Bang!" A computer mainframe not far from Najib was overloaded and burned in a burst of electric sparks without warning, and the computer screen went dark instantly.

This sudden change directly frightened everyone, including the chief who had been sitting firmly on Diaoyutai...

"Not good! Our address was found by the other party!"

However, it was too late when the hackers reacted.

"Bang! Bang!" Amidst the sound of crackling sparks one after another, the mainframes of each computer were instantly scrapped, and then the main server...

Everyone was in shock and panic.

Immediately after the next moment...

"Snapped!"

All the lights in the room went out instantly, and the entire technology center fell into darkness!
"Quick! Turn on the backup power!"

When the dim emergency lights came back on, it directly illuminated Najib's bloodless face...

He looked at the electronic clock on the wall, the time had just passed 2 minutes...

No need to ask, they have all been wiped out here.

That packet on the way...

1 minute!It's only 1 minute away!
"Counterattack! Give me a counterattack! Use all spare servers to counterattack!" Director Najib roared in anger.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, "Crack!"

Dim emergency lights flickered.

After the golden slogan "We lie, we cheat, we steal!" on the background wall flickered on and off several times under the lights...

Finally plunged into complete darkness...
