As Ji Qinglin said, the virus is fierce, and the WeChat groups of major faculties are talking about it, and the circle of friends is also reprinting relevant news.

"It's terrible!! my classmate's phone was locked by hackers/picture/, everyone quickly disconnected the network to back up. ”

"Damn, am I infected with the virus?/Picture/The other party asked me to send him money, I'm panicking now!What should I do?"

"5555555, my black girl has been attacked, there are a lot of photos in it/picture/, what should I do?

"Ahhh......hhh My appleID is locked, and the key is that I//iPhone, Mac, and iPad are all using the same ID. Which computer science god will help me, the little woman must promise ......"

Amid the wails, many computer science students were flooded with phone numbers.

"Hey brother, my phone was locked by a fucking hacker, is there any way to recover it...... No, I have a lot of data on my phone......"

"Little brother, what should I do if my appleID is remotely locked...... How long will it take...... Ah, it's going to take half a month? What are you kidding......

"Hey, great god......"

Chen Xu had also rushed to the school.

There were four people in the dormitory, Dong Shengjie, Yang Haidong and Zhou Xinghe all won the bid, only Jiang Hua, who went to the toilet, cut off the campus network because of the weak signal and escaped with 4G.

Chen Xuzheng took Yang Haidong's mobile phone and looked at it carefully.

Yang Haidong's Apple 8P, a big black background picture on the mobile phone, three big red characters in the middle [locked].

Below is the unlock serial number.

Below the serial number is the password input box.

At the bottom is a bold and blue hacker joke: [Dear, I wish you a happy New Year's Day!

At the bottom is a foreign bitcoin receiving address, as well as a note description, [Android unlock fee 100 yuan, iOS unlock fee 200 yuan]

The smallest unit of Bitcoin is 1 satoshi, 0.000000001, all the way to eight decimal places, but major platforms generally only convert to three decimal places, such as 0.0001.

According to the latest market quotation, one bitcoin is now about 3,800 US dollars, equivalent to about 26,000 yuan, and the unlocking fee for Android and iOS is 0.003846/0.007692 bitcoins respectively.

Chen Xu looked at the phone, then opened the notebook he brought, connected the phone to the notebook with a data cable, and asked Xiaobai to start analyzing the virus.

Here, Yang Haidong said depressedly: "This hacker is really awesome, even Apple's ID can be said to be stolen." ”

In half a month, Yang Haidong has come out of the shadow of broken love, but now he has changed from unpleasant to hateful to hateful to Zhou Xinghe.

"yes, it's awesome. Dong Shengjie nodded, and then said with envy: "It would be great if I had this level of technology, when the time comes, I will also develop a virus similar to Eternal Blue, and the speed of making money is almost like grabbing money." ”

Zhou Xinghe, who was sitting on the bed playing with the tablet, sneered: "Don't dream. Are you really a vegetarian in the world's security experts?"

Dong Shengjie said: "What is this?" What is the hacker group that developed Eternal Blue called...... Shadow brokers, hasn't the United States discovered them until now, and they have also invaded the National Security Bureau of the United States, and they are still at ease. ”

Zhou Xinghe said: "I don't know whether to say that you are naïve or stupid." How do you know that the National Security Service didn't find them, or that they're all in the same boat?"

Dong Shengjie said unconvinced: "Then you know?"

Zhou Xinghe said: "Although I don't know, I have eyes to see and brain analysis.

If you look at last year's news reports, within five hours of the outbreak of the Eternal Blue virus, many university intranets, large enterprise intranets and government agency private networks were recruited, including the United Kingdom, Russia, the whole of Europe, and China.

But don't you think it's strange that the country of rice, which is the birthplace of the virus, has nothing to do with it?"

Dong Shengjie stopped talking.

Whatever the reason for this, it was certainly not as simple as he had thought.

Here, Xiaobai spent twenty minutes analyzing the principle of the virus.

This is a mutated ransomware developed by hackers using Python, using the mapping port vulnerability of the campus network to invade mobile phones, it is not difficult to crack, like Android machines can kill viruses with special killing tools, it is estimated that there will be a version of the special killing tool on the Internet soon;

However, the iOS system is in trouble, the virus has modified Apple's login information, due to Apple's closed ecosystem, if you want to retrieve your account and password, you must go through Apple's official.

Of course, it's not impossible.

The reason why hackers can easily obtain apple's ID password is mainly by stealing QQ mailbox, because according to the survey, 82% of iPhone users in China use QQ mailbox for their ID accounts.

After stealing QQ Mail, the hacker changed the login information of the Apple ID through QQ Mail and locked the user's iPhone.

This refers to a mobile phone.

But like tonight, a large area of the school's mobile phones is locked, and hackers can't manually change Apple's login information, but instead use scripts to do it in batches, and then send the changed data packets to the specified address.

As long as you find this data packet address, you can get back the login information of all stolen accounts.

Of course, this is very difficult.

As for why the other party was able to break through QQ mailbox so easily, it should be to find the vulnerability of QQ mailbox.

……

At half past seven in the evening, China Overseas University of Science and Technology issued an urgent notice: [Students, a large-scale ransomware virus has broken out in our school, and mobile phones and computers will be locked after poisoning, and they must send money abroad to be returned, and remind all students not to process important information on the machine. Our center is contacting experts to repair the case, and has reported the case to the public security department. 】

At eight o'clock, more news came, not only a school of Tokyo University was recruited, but also hundreds of other universities in China and other universities in China were also recruited, as well as some large enterprises, institutions and government departments.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, the five major network security companies in China, including 360 Mobile Phone Guard, Tengxun Mobile Phone Manager, Baidu Mobile Phone Guard, LBE Security Master, and Cheetah Security Master, successively released Android ransomware killing tools.

However, there is still nothing to be done about the problem of appleID login information being tampered with.

By the next morning, the news of the "New Year's Day virus" was noisy, and according to incomplete statistics from relevant parties, more than 500,000 mobile phones were invaded by the ransomware virus, half of which were Apple phones. It also does not include Macs and iPads under the same ID.

The internet is full of high-priced help-seeking posts seeking to solve Apple, and scammers are rampant.

In this regard, public security organs around the country have also issued fraud warning warnings.

A well-known mobile phone security expert also gave several suggestions: First, find Apple's official channels to solve the problem.

Take a photo of the invoice for the purchase of the phone, the warranty card and the serial number on the back of the mobile phone box and send it to Apple's official designated email address by email, and the staff will help unlock it within 15 working days after verifying that it is correct.

Given the surge in Apple's official workload after the concentrated outbreak of the virus, 15 working days is only the most optimistic estimate.

Second, find the almighty Taobao.

There is everything on the almighty Taobao, just search for Apple ID to lock, and the customer service will tell you whether you can solve it, how many days it can be solved, and the probability of success. Can't get a refund.

Third, compromise with the hacker and pay to unlock it.

If you really can't wait for Apple's official processing of "turtle speed", can't find the corresponding invoice and packaging box, and think that Taobao can't solve it, then compromising with hackers and paying money with one hand to unlock it may also be a way to do it.

Of course, this compromise may take the risk that the hacker will not be trustworthy after paying, or that 200 will not satisfy the hacker's appetite, and you will most likely need to pay another 200 yuan.

In addition to the above three methods, it is not recommended to seek a method of unlocking through other means.

However, after the public security and experts prompted, some people were still deceived.

And many of these people are caused by the urgency of having important data files in their mobile phones, Macs, and iPads.

At the same time, the New Year's Day virus has also attracted the attention of the Ministry of Information Security, which sent a team of "experts" to major mobile phone security companies to urge and guide them to come up with solutions as soon as possible.

Naturally, the five major security companies have also worked hard to track down the data package address.

What Chen Xu could think of, the technicians of these security companies naturally thought of.

Now let's see which company can find that address first, and whoever finds it first will be the NO1 in China's mobile phone security industry.

will not only be in the limelight in this "New Year's Day virus turmoil", but also make a lot of money.

Just when the technicians of several major mobile phone security companies were scratching their ears and cheeks, Lin Weiqiao, the technical director of Zhonghai Xingjian Network Security Company, was also paying attention to the incident throughout the whole process.

At this moment, looking at the hustle and bustle of all kinds of related news on the computer screen, Lin Weiqiao supported his chin with his elbows and groaned, he always felt that he had forgotten a very, very, very important thing......
