Chapter 248: A Bombshell in the Security Field
Rongfei Industrial Group, tonight is completely sleepless. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ say Щщш.
After receiving a call from Wu Yaofei, Chief Engineer Chen, who was already asleep, changed his clothes and rushed to the group immediately.
At three o'clock in the morning, Rongfei Group held an emergency technical meeting and reported the relevant situation to the relevant military departments.
At this time, it was four o'clock in the afternoon Washington time.
The Pentagon's day's work is coming to an end.
Some of the staff have begun to pack up their work, and the summary of the archive of the archive, no one has found out that the server has been invaded and the data has been stolen during the day.
The technicians, who were repairing the computer, told employees Vida and Ariel that "we checked for a day and couldn't find a problem, so I guess there might be a problem with the chip." ”
"Something went wrong with the chip? Unlikely. "I use the most advanced Prajna chip, how can there be a problem, and it has only been used for less than three months." ”
Because the maintenance personnel were originally internal to the Pentagon, there was no problem in revealing that the Pentagon used the Prajna chip against the judgment of the US court.
"But it has to be the chip. The maintenance staff said, "Except for the chip, I have checked all the equipment and there are no problems." But we don't have the technology for chips, so it's just an inference. ”
"No, if it's a single chip, it's a problem, then it's reasonable to say why all three computers in our office have problems." ”
"It can't be a coincidence!"
It must not be a coincidence that three computers equipped with the Prajna chip have problems at the same time.
The technician said, "Could it be that Pangu Technology locked the chip through remote control?"
"Unlikely. Vinda said, "At present, the chip that is locked outside is because the IP address is in the United States, so as long as it is connected to the Internet, it will be locked by Pangu Technology." But these conventional practices don't work on our computers, and the Pentagon has the most advanced security and camouflage mechanisms in the world. ”
Vinda continued to analyze, "If it is really remotely locked by Pangu Technology, unless they get past our firewall, identify our disguise, and hack into the Pentagon......"
Vader said this, his eyes turning frightened, and he looked at Ariel, and he felt more and more that it was a possibility.
"You mean someone got past the Pentagon's firewall last night?"
Vader nodded and said, "Report it quickly and check! Maybe it's not Pangu Technology! Maybe other hackers have crossed the firewall and exposed our internal computers to the Internet, and they will be automatically locked after being detected by Pangu Technology! But who is it, we have been hacked!"
Ariel and Vader urgently press the security button, meaning that the computer has been hacked.
The five senior security officials of the building and the department in charge of information security, who were originally going to leave work, urgently entered the work state.
Technicians from the information security department began to investigate all of the Pentagon's computers and servers, hoping to find clues.
The end result was unexpected.
At seven o'clock in the evening Washington time, the inspection result was that there was no trace of invasion.
Except for Xiao Ming's deliberate provocation to let Super Xiao Chu lock up the Panruo chip, Xiao Chu's invasion will definitely not leave any traces, this is the technology generation gap!
"How could it be?" said Eliel, "if there was no intrusion, our computers were not exposed to the outside internet, then how could the chip be locked." ”
Security officer Bill said, "Ariel, are you worrying too much. Perhaps if the chip is not as powerful as everyone thinks, the chip itself has quality problems. ”
Bill shrugged his shoulders and said, "I suggest that you still replace it with Intel's chip, although the computing power is relatively weak, and it is more troublesome to work without the Pangu system, but it is stable." It would have been more dangerous to use Xia Guo's chips in the Pentagon. ”
Vader and Ariel's computers and servers are not on the same network, and they are also responsible for some minor non-daily tasks, more like personal computers, so they use the Prajna chip for convenience and leisure.
But things really want to be as simple as Bill said.
Vader reaffirmed, "Three computers are malfunctioning at the same time? ”
Ariel's brow furrowed, and he didn't think it would be that simple.
None of the people who were able to get into the Pentagon were idiots, and neither was Ariel, who came up with a very accurate test to determine if there was an outsider invasion.
"When we get off work, the critical data site servers are shut down, except for the emergency department. In other words, our electricity consumption is basically stable every night, check the meter! Gentlemen, check the meter chart last night. If there is a sudden fluctuation in electricity consumption at a certain time, then we must be invaded!"
Nice note indeed!
Pentagon security took Ariel's suggestion and immediately ran out of power last night.
Half an hour later, the data was taken out, and everyone was shocked!
Starting at eleven o'clock last night, the Pentagon had a peak in electricity consumption, which lasted for more than an hour.
Such a peak can not be satisfied with a few lights, it must be open the server.
The Minister of Security, Abraham's face was pale, the machine was always a machine, it was impossible to turn it on and run it by itself for an hour and then shut it down, it must have been done by someone.
"Immediately survey every department to see if there was any overtime last night, and check the surveillance to see if anybody came in last night." ”
Things are developing in the direction that everyone is worried about, and no one in the Pentagon worked overtime last night, except for the emergency department to work overtime as usual, and no one entered the Pentagon last night.
All the evidence points to one - a hacker last night crossed a security firewall that would have taken 3 million years to break, hacked into the server, and even took control of the server into a working state. And by the way, he teased three inconsequential notebooks, so that these notebooks were directly connected to the external network through the Pentagon's security mechanism, and were detected by Pangu Technology and locked.
After learning this result, the scene was silent, and the cold sweat soaked everyone's backs, everyone knew that there were confidential materials including F22 in the server, and if it was stolen, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"Who did that?" Abraham asked the technician, "Pangu Technology?"
The technician shook his head and said, "I can't be sure, but I don't think it should be said, if Pangu Technology did it, wouldn't it be self-exposing if he locked the Prajna chip?" I am more inclined to be hackers, and the three notebooks were locked by Pangu Technology's autonomous detection system after our safety net was cracked, and they were unintentionally connected directly to the external network. ”
