Chapter 249: There are no absolutes
"I want to ask!" Liu Xiao walked to the car, suddenly turned his head and asked, "What is Mr. Langdon's position?"
"The contemptible is the new supreme head of the intelligence department of country F!" Langdon replied with a smile.
When Liu Xiao heard this, he was immediately stunned, then he got into this car, didn't he get on the thief ship, it was the Ministry of Intelligence that kidnapped him last time, and he and Shang Yue had trouble with the Ministry of Intelligence before.
"What's wrong?" Langdon looked at Liu Xiao, "Mr. Liu seems to be a little uneasy about me!"
"No!" Liu Xiao waved his hand, "I'm just a little puzzled, just now I thought you were an official of the Ministry of Cybersecurity, but I didn't expect it to be the Ministry of Intelligence." ”
"In the cyber crisis of country F, the most heavy loss is the intelligence department, we have been slandered by hackers, and the former supreme head General Wallis also ended up resigning because of this incident, which is a big shame for our intelligence department!" Langdon looked at Liu Xiao, "Mr. Liu Xiao is a world-renowned network security expert, I learned that you are going to go to country F to participate in the security forum, I came to greet you, I hope Mr. Liu can see my sincerity, give us some advice, solve the current predicament, and be ashamed!"
"General Langdon praised it falsely! How can I have such great ability!" Liu Xiao hurriedly shook his head, this guy said politely, but he didn't know how to hate himself in his heart, this was a demonstration!
"Mr. Liu, please get in the car first, get in the car and then talk!" Langdon raised his hand and motioned for Liu Xiao to ask first.
Liu Xiao gritted his teeth, he could only do this, even if he came, he would be safe, and they didn't dare to do anything about themselves, but they just sent themselves this painless warning. Liu Xiao secretly sighed in his heart, fortunately he came, if she changed business, she would be a girl's family, and when she saw this meeting, she might not know what would happen.
"Last time, we unsubscribed from your products, and we didn't inform you in advance, which was inappropriate, and I apologize to Mr. Liu. As soon as the car started, Langdon got to the point, and came to retreat as advance!
"Mr. Langdon doesn't have to be like this, in fact, we also have something inappropriate!" Liu Xiao smiled and shook his head, "If it weren't for our marketing too hasty, this wouldn't have happened, and this is also a lesson for us." Now we are setting up a more complete after-sales technical support network in all markets around the world, in the future, such a thing should not happen again, as long as the customer's product problems, regardless of the number of products, our technicians will be solved within half an hour through a variety of ways. ”
"It's not your product's problem!" Langdon also shook his head, "We did an investigation afterwards, and the cause of the accident was mainly because our network administrator was not skilled enough in the operation and setting of your product, and the operation error led to the final accident!"
Liu Xiao didn't bother to tell this guy these false lies, and said: "Don't mention the past! At this meeting of the World Information Security Forum, country F will also participate, right?"
"That's!" Langdon bowed, "we are also a member of the Forum, and this time I will personally attend the meeting to explain the course of events in detail. ”
"Oh?" Liu Xiao looked at Langdon, "Our soft alliance is not a member organization, so I didn't plan to come over to participate in this meeting, but I had some doubts in my heart that I couldn't solve, so I came here to solve them." ”
"What are the doubts? Mr. Liu, please speak!"
"The Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Intelligence are both sharp weapons of the state, they have a lot of resources at their disposal, and they are also cautious and meticulous in their affairs, but this time they are in the hands of an IND organization. Liu Xiao looked at Langdon, "I just want to know, this ind is really that powerful?"
When Langdon heard this, he was overjoyed, it seems that this common problem of technical people, even if it is a master like Liu Xiao, it cannot be avoided, as long as he can be interested in IND, then there will be a drama about the battle between the soft alliance and IND. Langdon was happy, and said: "Since the matter has come out, then I will no longer shy away from anything, this IND's level in network attacks, can be said to be the peak, the World Information Security Forum held an emergency summit, is to discuss this matter, to come up with a way to deal with IND, otherwise, they can blackmail us this time, next time they can also blackmail other countries! At this time, I also hope that Mr. Liu can do his best to help, everyone to discuss IND, the public enemy of the network security community!"
"Is it really so powerful?" Liu Xiao pretended to be puzzled, "Then I want to see it!"
"The meeting will be held tomorrow, and I will explain the incident process to all the participants in detail, and after listening, if Mr. Liu still has any doubts, you can contact me!" Langdon finished speaking, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Liu Xiao.
"Okay!" Liu Xiao and Langdon exchanged business cards, and the car had already arrived downstairs at the hotel, "Thank you Mr. Langdon for your hospitality, then let's see you tomorrow!"
Langdon didn't say anything anymore, watched Liu Xiao get out of the car, and said, "Then I won't send Mr. Liu up, see you tomorrow!", after speaking, others didn't get out of the car, and directly asked the driver to drive away.
Liu Xiao entered the hotel, and saw that there was a reception office set up by the conference in the hall, and he signed the invitation letter in the past, and received the room card and the daily arrangement of the meeting.
Putting down the book, Liu Xiao went upstairs, wondering if there was anything else that Langdon came to pick up his business today, other people's backgrounds were much more than his own, and he didn't see Langdon pick up in person.
Early the next morning, all the cars arranged by the conference were gathered downstairs, Liu Xiao casually jumped into a minibus, and came to the venue of the meeting with everyone.
Outside the venue, there were many policemen standing at three steps and one post at five steps, and several security checks were set up at the entrance of the venue, and all the communication tools and electronic and digital products of the participants had to be handed over and kept by the conference for the time being. Only then did Liu Xiao know that the conference strictly forbade filming and recording, and prohibited communication at the venue, not to mention that you can't bring these things in, even if you bring them in, it will be useless, the communication signals at the venue have been blocked, Liu Xiao looked at the electronic jamming car parked outside the venue, and understood.
"It's a little interesting! It's a little interesting!" Liu Xiao smiled, he also had a mobile phone on his body, handed it over to the security checkpoint, and walked into the venue, it was the first time he had seen such a big battle, it seemed that his trip would not be in vain, this group of people might really be able to shake out something real, Liu Xiao picked a secluded corner, and sat down.
The participants in the back arrived one after another, and the others were different from Liu Xiao, they all rushed to sit forward, trying to see and understand, and then show their faces, which looked like him, hiding in the corner, and those who didn't know thought they were the cleaning staff of the venue.
Liu Xiao was also happy to be quiet, just waiting for the conference to start.
"Wow!"
Liu Xiao was sitting there in a trance, when he heard a movement next to him, turned his head, and saw a person sitting in the seat next to him, who was also black-eyed and yellow-skinned.
"Chinese?" Liu Xiao asked.
The man nodded, "Yes, you too?"
Liu Xiao nodded, but he wondered in his heart, the Soft Alliance failed to blend into this world information security forum, and other domestic security agencies were even more hopeless, so who is this person, "Hello, I didn't expect to see my compatriots here, I am Liu Xiao of the Soft Alliance!" Liu Xiao first reported to his home, and then asked, "Where is this big brother?"
"Are you Liu Xiao?" the man stood up and looked at Liu Xiao carefully, "I've always heard Wen Qing talk about you, but unfortunately I haven't met each other, and it's a great pleasure to meet you here today!"
"You know Brother Wenqing!" Liu Xiao was overjoyed, got up and shook hands with the other party, "It seems that we are still a family!"
"That's right, it's a family!" the man smiled and took out his business card, "Dai Zhiqiang, head of OTE Europe!"
Liu Xiao was shocked, he didn't expect that the person in front of him was actually the European person in charge of OTT, so he quickly took out his business card, "In OTTE, everyone is a peerless genius, and it is my luck to be able to meet Brother Dai today!"
"You are young, why are you so verbose, what are you polite!Sit!" Dai Zhiqiang pressed Liu Xiao down, then sat down himself, and asked, "Why did you come to join in this fun?"
Liu Xiao smiled, the people of OTE never pretend to be colors to anyone, because none of them are afraid, they have no choice, they are in charge of the soft alliance, they have to deal with it for half a year, and now they are polite words, and they are sick in their occupation, "I didn't plan to come, I just wanted to figure out what was going on, so I came over to take a look!"
"Oh, then you won't be disappointed!" Dai Zhiqiang smiled, "This is what they have to talk about this meeting." ”
"Brother Dai also knows about IND, right?" asked Liu Xiao.
"I know some!" Dai Zhiqiang sighed, "But I haven't fought before, I only know that these people are very powerful!"
"Can the world-class security system designed by OTE prevent the attack of IND?" Liu Xiao suddenly asked.
Dai Zhiqiang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, "This is not comparable, there are no absolutes in the world, the key is to look at people!"
Liu Xiao is stupid now, this sounds a little familiar, before he came to country F, he seemed to have said this to himself without a trace of stepping on the snow. Liu Xiao looked at Dai Zhiqiang carefully, strange, two different people, but the words they said were almost the same, what was going on? Is there any connection between these two people, or do all the masters know this way?
"What's wrong?" Dai Zhiqiang looked at Liu Xiao.
"It's nothing, I just think what you said is very interesting!" Liu Xiao smiled, "Very inspiring!"
The two immediately changed the topic, talked about some gossip in the circle, and talked about the cooperation between the two sides until the conference was announced.
Langdon was indeed the first to take the stage, "Thank you very much to the World Information Security Forum for arranging this emergency summit to be held in country F, and thank you for all the members and guests for coming. Not long ago, a major cyber security incident occurred in country F, in which the other party borrowed network technology to commit fraud, resulting in a loss of $2.1 billion in the state treasury, which was the most humiliating thing in the history of country F, and the government was humiliated, and the responsible persons of the Ministry of Intelligence and the Ministry of Defense were also dismissed. At the same time, this is also the largest fraud case in the history of hackers, and this is a brand-new hacking method! This is the topic of this conference, and I hope that all the participants can clearly understand the harm that this new type of hacking method can cause, and we need to join hands to jointly crack down on and curb the development of this hacking method and maintain the security of the world's information! Next, I will give you a detailed introduction to the process of this incident!
Langdon started from the accident of the soft alliance product, because of the operation error, which led to a network accident, and announced that he would unsubscribe from the soft alliance product and use domestic information security products without checking the reason, and finally fell into a network crisis inexplicably and was attacked by many hackers.
Liu Xiao was a little depressed, saying this, it gave the SoftAlliance a great face, but it also put the SoftAlliance into great trouble, at least many people will naturally think that the network crisis behind is related to unsubscribing from the SoftAlliance products, otherwise why say these two things together.
At this time, the Department of Defense, under the introduction of a national cybersecurity expert, got in touch with Bobby McKinnon, and the Department of Defense agreed very much with Bobby McKinnon's qualifications and the plan he proposed, so it hired this person as the chief security adviser of country F, responsible for helping country F survive the network security crisis. In the future, in fact, it doesn't matter if everyone listens to it or not, the results are already here.
"The course of the incident is not important, the key is what the other party has done for this fraud! Please look at the big screen!" Langdon pointed to the big screen, "Bobby McKinnon was in country F, the world's search engines were secretly manipulated, this is the evidence we searched, it is a screenshot of the different results of the normal search engine now and the manipulated engine at that time, please take a look at the comparison!"
"Wow!" There was some commotion at the scene, and the picture on the big screen was played back and forth several times, and everyone could clearly see that the results of this search engine were completely different, and they were completely purposefully providing fake messages. Liu Xiao was also surprised, because he searched for Bobby McKinnon, and at that time he also wondered why a person who was highly expected by the state would only get one result on the search engine, and now he understands that the search engine is controlled, and it will provide different information according to the source of the searcher.
"In addition to the search engine, IND controls all the network communication data of our Ministry of Intelligence and the Ministry of Defense!" Langdon held up a large folder, "This information is obtained from the British side through the Internet, and we need to verify Bobby McKinnon's information, and all this intelligence from the UK has confirmed that Bobby McKinnon is a security genius with a great track record." It was only afterwards that we learned that England, having received our request for access, had sent us the correct message, and that was what it would be when it reached us. The communication between the intelligence services of the two countries has been intercepted by a network rogue group, and they can modify the communication data between us at will!"
As soon as these words came out, the people from the network security and network intelligence departments of various countries in the venue immediately changed color, many of them knew about IND, but they never imagined that IND would be so powerful.
But Langdon was not finished, "Afterwards, Bobby McKinnon left the country in his name, and he left the country under the name of Bobby McKinnon, but when the plane landed in England, his name became Norris, and then he immediately had a new legal status, Palmer, and he left England under that name and flew to Germany." By the time we went to investigate, all three sets of legal identity information he had in the UK had been deleted!"
The venue suddenly exploded, everyone understood what this meant, they can make a country deaf and deaf, and they can create the identity they need at will, everyone thought at first that it only involved country F, but they didn't expect that this time it would lead to Britain and Germany, and now they know that this is simply a terrorist organization that is above all regimes and rules.
Liu Xiao was also a little stupid, and shook his head in dismay, "In this world, there really is such a powerful character?"
Dai Zhiqiang is not surprised at all, "There will always be miracles like IND in this world to tell people that there are no absolutes in the world!"
