Rebirth of the Internet: Starting from Games

Chapter 261 Fire, burning all over the world

Combat Command Center.

"Report, a large number of registered accounts and spam messages were found in the system background."

"Oh? Did they finally fight back?"

Li Wu looked at the backend system of Century Friendship Network for a while, walked over and muttered a few words to the boss, and then came back and ordered, "Proceed according to the third set of plans."

In fact, after attacking Tencent, they anticipated that their opponents would fight back and formulated three sets of plans for this purpose.

The third set of plans is also the simplest one, that is, the new account needs to complete a series of information filling and novice guidance before it can have permission to publish updates and logs.

Such benefits have no impact on real users but increase the cost of publishing for malicious users. After all, how could their own offensive methods not have corresponding preventive measures.

What's more, Century Youyuan.com is a product that took half a year of polishing to perfect, and under the boss's instructions, all aspects, including network security and audit mechanism, are very perfect.

Long before the attack was launched, the review mechanism had been changed from posting first and then reviewing to reviewing first and posting later. This means that all content published by users, whether it is updates, logs, or even uploaded avatars, needs to be reviewed by backend personnel. It must be reviewed and approved before it can be displayed to the outside world. Otherwise, you can only entertain yourself and the outside world will not be able to perceive it.

In terms of user experience, this means that the content sent out is delayed, ranging from tens of seconds to more than a minute before it is displayed.

However, it can completely control the overall quality of the website content and not be polluted.

For Li Wu's Lucky Light Studio, the operational pressure is a bit greater, but the back-end system operations can be performed in batches. There is an automatic verification mechanism for sensitive lexicon text, and all kinds of pornographic tyranny comments can be automatically passed through the system. Once the blocking is done, only one or two people will need to review it.

Since the current system cannot automatically identify pictures, it still requires manual identification with the naked eye. Fortunately, they are all thumbnails that can be processed in batches. At a glance, there are dozens of them, which should be deleted and passed.

However, there is some shortage of manpower. Today, Century Interactive Entertainment’s recruitment website has an additional position: Porn Appraiser (urgent)!

Job requirements: Personnel working on online platforms responsible for screening and identifying inappropriate content.

Job responsibilities:

1. It is necessary to check various forms of media content, such as pictures, videos, texts, etc., to identify whether there is pornography, obscenity or other objectionable content.

2. Deletion of illegal content: Once illegal content is discovered, pornographic analysts need to take measures to delete or block it to ensure the security of the platform or network environment.

3. Monitoring and reporting: Pornographic appraisers need to regularly monitor content on the platform and generate reports to provide statistical data and analysis in order to improve pornographic appraisal work and formulate better strategies.

Priority recruitment items: Candidates who can quickly identify complex data will be given priority; seeds larger than 100MB will be given priority.

Job benefits: monthly salary starting from 3000 yuan, with corresponding performance commissions based on the number of reviews each month.

Education requirements: none

Once this post was released, it caused a lot of discussion among netizens.

Many people joked that the era of paid movies has finally arrived.

Of course this is just a small episode in a big event.

Overall, Century Friendship Network is still running smoothly. Some delayed display of content has caused feedback from users. It has also been explained in the forum and customer service feedback center, and users understand it.

After several days of fighting, the results achieved by Century Zongheng are remarkable.

It has an advantage in the social field and has directly put QQ space into shock. The other party is currently being rescued. The Internet is different from other industries. If you open a store offline, it doesn't matter if it is closed for a day. However, websites and games are different and will be closed for a period of time. A large number of users will be lost. Of course, after QQ Space is rescued, Li Wu has other means to make it go into shock again.

The game field has stabilized the situation. The server has been calm for the time being after experiencing a serious network impact. Sina's "Lineage 2" is coming fiercely and is expected to enter the top five, but it will have little impact on the overall situation of online games.

Finally, there is the security side, which has become the hardest-hit area in this battle. Due to the inability to detect and kill the latest mutant viruses, the majority of netizens who have been infected have basically abandoned Century Security Guard and switched to the arms of others.

Some netizens who have not been caught are also afraid that they will be caught. Seeing that others have changed, they also follow suit and rush to change anti-virus software. All the market share occupied by Century Security Guard in the past few months will be lost to other anti-virus software. Software vendors cannibalized everything.

<divclass="contentadv">Wu Hanqing has not been home for several days in order to crack the virus, and even some employees in Century Network Shield Company have been having troubled days and nights.

Because they know that the company's survival is now at stake.

Since this mutated virus has the characteristics of self-evolution, it is extremely difficult to advance the work.

Finally, with the efforts of a group of security engineers and Huangdao Zodiac Master, a breakthrough was finally made on the fifth day after the virus was discovered, and the virus was effectively detected and killed.

On the sixth day, Century Security Guard quickly installed the new version.

On the seventh day, the external release was launched.

But the lost share is like water thrown out and cannot be recovered.

Since the virus outbreak, Century Security Guard's share has plummeted from 74% to 22%.

After the release of the new version, although the market share increased to 26%, it was no longer as good as before.

During the review, Chen Hao saw that the report given by Century Network Shield was that these viruses contained more or less the coding habits of some anti-virus software manufacturers.

The report shows that through decompilation, they found some screenshots of code snippets for comparison and verification.

Unfortunately, these are just similarities but cannot be used as evidence.

Chen Hao has actually determined that this virus incident is caused by the anti-virus manufacturers.

After all, the people who know the most about viruses are often their opponents—antivirus manufacturers. They know how to design and manufacture viruses better than the hackers who spread viruses in the computer market. Only when there are enough viruses on the market can users maintain their interest in paid antivirus software. needs.

This is also the reason why the anti-virus software market continues to thrive.Otherwise, if the virus disappears, the existence of anti-virus software will have little meaning.

The principle of raising bandits to respect themselves has existed since ancient times, but now the method has changed.

Since I really can't grasp the opponent's leverage, but if the fire is ignited all over the world, how will you respond?Anyway, his conscience is only limited to the country, and foreign countries control his floods.

But you have to be careful in this matter, after all, if you are not careful, you will steal the chicken but lose the rice.

He handed Wu Hanqing over to the combat command center, and then asked the latter to contact the members of the Zodiac in a secret way and conduct a secret meeting.

In the next period of time, a mutated virus appeared in various countries around the world, which was highly transmissible and destructive. All corporate and government computers had less impact due to their higher security protection level, but private computers were seriously infected. Amid some public opinions and protests, this virus has attracted the attention of cybersecurity organizations in various countries.

The security alliances of some countries have even joined forces to analyze, research, crack and trace the origin of this virus.

Because Kaspersky, as the largest information security system developer, has a market share of more than 60% in its home country, it is the least affected among these countries.

For this reason, the official U.S. security agency initially thought that the other party was trying to initiate Internet poisoning.

After all, just a few years after 911/[-], in addition to having to deal with the war in the Middle East, we also had to keep an eye on every move.

Over time, the virus was broken down and dismantled.

And with the collaboration of the world's top security engineers, the origin of the virus gradually emerged.
