Chapter 1961 - Misstep

Kevin Mitnick accepted the challenge, did not leave any words on the dark web, and directly started to work alone.

For him, if one person can take down the entire security team, then he is still the best and most powerful hacker in the world.

Whoever he is, they will look up to him, worship him, and sing his praises.

He's a legend in the world of hackers.

But apparently, Kevin Mitnick's side underestimated Shimomura's strength. In particular, Shimomura does not fight alone, but has a whole team to serve him.

In particular, it is a combination of the Internet and reality.

So, soon, Shimomura and others bypassed the layers of traps laid by Kevin Mitnick, and finally got the actual location of Kevin Mitnick.

As they had guessed, Kevin Mitnick lived in a very undesirable place. It's a cheap apartment. Obviously, Kevin Mitnick can't afford a higher-priced apartment either.

With the cooperation of the CIA and the Homeland Security Agency, a search of the apartment was conducted, and Kevin Mitnick was quickly captured.

Of course, what they need is evidence, conclusive evidence.

Grab evidence of Kevin Mitnick's cybercrime.

Although Kevin Mitnick has repeatedly provoked Shimomura Tsutomu in between, he did not reveal his real name, but used a well-known online pseudonym.

However, no matter how well-known an online pseudonym, it does not represent the identity of the law after all.

On the Internet, you can call a paladin, and the next second you can call Satan.

So, they had to grab the evidence from Kevin Mitnick's computer.

Only then can everyone get the stolen goods.

Otherwise, it would be very difficult to convict them.

Basically, this cybercrime requires finding evidence from the personal computer it uses.

Therefore, when searching and arresting, it is not only necessary to be quick to avoid deleting the data in the computer in advance, but also to be able to find other evidence as much as possible to prove that it has collusion with the dark web.

Their target isn't Kevin Mitnick.

Actually, Kevin Mitnick doesn't matter to them at all.

What they want is the core person of the dark web behind it, and Q, who has many elite hackers, and this is their goal.

Just Kevin Mitnick, they don't care.

At least Kevin Mitnick is not in their hearts now.

What hacking skills are the first person, for now, does not matter at all.

What really matters is Q, the one who can snare many elite hackers. He's the most terrifying.

Because he can snare everyone.

That's the scariest thing.

It's never technology that's scary, it's people.

Not surprisingly, Kevin Mitnick was caught.

When he saw the CIA people descending from the sky, he knew that he was finished, and the game was completely finished.

The strength of the other party is beyond his imagination.

"I lost!" Kevin Mitnick looked at the long-haired Shimomura Tsutsutomu bitterly.

"Since you've lost, let's be honest. Shimomura said, "Our purpose is not you. If you are willing to cooperate with us, I think you may be able to change who you are now and what you will do in the future. ”

This means that it is recruited.

But recruiting An means a complete separation from his past identity, and even a betrayal.

Kevin Mitnick smiled coldly.

"I lost, but that doesn't mean you can catch Q through me!" Kevin Mitnick said lightly, "Do you really think you can catch Q?"

The C.I.A. officer on the side began to restart the black-screen computer, wanting to see how much was still inside.

Just when they broke down the door, they saw that Kevin Mitnick had only time to turn off the power and before he could take care of other things, and they were under control.

Shimomura also keeps a close eye on the computer, and the information in it is the most important.

Originally, it was normal to disassemble the hard drive and then get the data.

But just now, they moved too fast, and Kevin Mitnick was controlled before he could act.

So, now reboot, maybe you can log in to the dark web.

Once launched, there is a login window.

A password is required.

"What's the password?" the C.I.A. officer immediately asked.

Shimomura stopped the CIA officers.

"This is a set of randomly changing passwords, using the pigsty password encryption method. However, there are slight changes. But it's not that hard to crack. Shimomura said, staring at the screen.

Kevin Mitnick sneered.

Shimomura and several cybersecurity experts who came with him began to crack it.

Soon, they cracked the encryption program.

This encryption program changes every minute.

In other words, each time it changes over time, the password changes naturally. The key to unlocking this password is the computer's time.

It's not a clever encryption method, but it's ingenious.

Shimomura looked at the time and entered the password for this time period.

Then, the computer shows success and is reading the system.

All clenched their fists.

Everyone looked at Kevin Mitnick coldly, this time to see how he quibbled.

Logging in is a little slow, though.

The win98 reading screen has been waiting for a long time, and it is still stuck there.

This made everyone shake their heads.

This computer is really broken.

But looking at Kevin Mitnick's environment, it's no surprise that everyone has broken his computer.

After all, this guy is so poor that he doesn't have much money.

The computer naturally breaks. It's not surprising that such a broken computer runs slowly.

So, everyone, just wait.

But soon, Shimomura felt that something was wrong.

How could it be that long.

"No, hurry, turn off the computer. This is not right!" shouted Shimomura.

What do you mean?

"Quick, turn off the power, this may be deleting data!" shouted Shimomura.

Only then did everyone panic to find a power supply.

But just then, the computer shows that it has started up.

The interface of Windows 98 pops up normally.

Everyone was stunned, and then looked at Xia Muramian.

Still can't turn off the power?

Shimomura sat in front of the computer.

It shows a very standard Windows 98 interface.

Everything is available and there are no problems.

This, I was suspicious just now?

Subsequently, Shimomura entered the hard drive.

I found that the hard drive was empty.

His brow furrowed suddenly.

After that, look at all the drive letters, and all of them are empty.

Except for the system disk and files, all the other disks are empty.

Deleted, deleted.

At that moment, Shimomura turned off the computer, removed the hard drive, and connected it to a dedicated data repair device.

As a result, the entire drive looks like it's new. There's no data in there.

Just now, just when it was booted, the hard drive seemed to be rewritten at least seven or eight times.

Such frequent erases and write-offs destroy all the data.

No data was left at all.

Damn it.

They made a mistake.
