Chapter 220: Ransomware?

"The show is in the forest, the wind is more devastating, the super genius was assassinated, and his life and death in the hospital are unknown. ”

"Assassination in broad daylight, the unscrupulous means of the despicable and cowardly. ”

"Who is the author of this horrific assassination, it is clear!"

"Five horrific car accidents occurred one after another, killing thirteen innocent lives, with the ultimate goal of creating an assassination opportunity. ”

“……。 ”

Shocking, eye-catching headlines suddenly appeared on major news websites and video websites, and then accompanied by pictures of the scene of the car accident, pictures of the bulletproof car being smashed flat by steel ingots, pictures of the bulletproof car being devastated by bullets, and videos taken at the scene after the war,......。

It's miserable, it's terrible.

The government held an emergency press conference, and the spokesman of the press solemnly condemned it, the whole country mourned, and the people were boiling.

In the special ward of the First Hospital of Peking University, Zhou Xing stared intently at the notebook in front of him, endured the pain in his arm and began to write code.

Who is the culprit who assassinated him, there is no need for any evidence, and there are only a few countries that will be so ruthless to him because of the conflict of interests between countries.

Time flies, Zhou Xing's hands are on the notebook keyboard, and his ten fingers are flying, and the sound of 'crackling' is continuous.

The LCD screen is filled with green data streams composed of English and data, which are dazzling to watch.

Tang Xin, who was standing on the side, was amazed by Zhou Xing's strong computer ability, and at the same time, she was very curious about how Zhou Xing used his laptop to complete revenge.

Finally, loading the IP network segment of the attack target, Zhou Xing hesitated for a moment, and finally knocked down the confirmation button.

Zhou Xing was stunned and ended the programming.

"Are you thirsty? Tang Xin handed Zhou Xing a glass of water and asked with concern, "Is it over?"

Zhou Xing took the water cup, took a sip of water, and nodded: "It's over, the bomb has been sent out." ”

"Data bombs, viruses, Trojan horses, what did you just write?" Tang Xin stared at Zhou Xing in confusion, although she was also a computer professional, but she couldn't understand what Zhou Xing had written, let alone figure out how he took revenge.

On the other side of the ocean, it is the dead of night.

Ronald, as usual, arrived at the unit at 10 o'clock in the evening, ready to start his new day of staying up late.

Ronald works for the Ministry of Government Intelligence as a highly skilled operation and maintenance engineer, maintaining servers, websites, mailboxes, databases, ,...... , etc., and other work related to the server and data, so that the server can keep it normal and record the data received from overseas in a timely manner.

As usual, Ronald made himself a cup of coffee to refresh himself, then sat down in his seat, opened the server log, checked the server running status, confirmed that it was normal, and then clicked on the database to view the received file data.

"Hell, what's going on!" Ronald exclaimed.

I saw that the computer screen suddenly went black, and a pop-up box popped up, reminding him that the file he wanted to open had been encrypted, and he needed to pay a ransom of 1 bitcoin within three days before he could open it, and all encrypted software and files would be automatically deleted after the deadline.

"I actually fell for the ransomware virus, is this ransomware virus evolving?FUCK!" Ronald scolded, extremely depressed.

Ransomware is a kind of "worm" virus software, which mainly exploits the vulnerability of Microsoft's "Windows" system to obtain the ability to spread automatically, and can infect all computers in a system within a few hours, resulting in a large number of files being encrypted and unable to unravel, which is a very destructive computer virus.

Two years ago, the ransomware Eternal Blue outbreak was like a global Internet disaster, causing huge losses to the majority of computer users. The latest statistics show that at least 150 countries and 300,000 users have been recruited, causing losses of $8 billion, which has affected many industries such as finance, energy, and healthcare, causing serious crisis management problems.

Has it made a comeback? and evolved to break through the 'Blue Shield' firewall and hack into the server system.

The information in the server is so important that countless overseas jobs 'risk' and spend countless funds to collect it, and if he is really harmed by this virus, the supervisor will shoot him with one shot.

Ronald's whole face darkened, and he hurriedly operated the computer to find data recovery software, which was efficient source DRS data recovery, R-Studio, inHex,...... , etc. recovery software, try to crack the virus, recover data.

No! not AES encryption mode.

No! It's not RSA encryption!

Am I dazzled?

Wrong.

Oh my God! What's going on with this virus?

Is this the kernel data just now, and why has it changed?

“……。 ”

From late night to early morning, Ronald's eyes were red, staring at the LCD screen, trying various ways to crack it, but after getting the core data of the virus, he collapsed.

The core data of this virus is alive, like a maggot wrapped around the bytes of a file, and it is impossible to understand it at all, unless the file is also deleted.

"Ronat, what's wrong? Nothing happened last night, right?" a hand patted Ronald on the shoulder, waking him up.

"Jones, why are you here?" Ronald asked, turning his head and looking at the black man who was patting him on the shoulder.

"Ha, it's time for me to go to work! Why don't you go back to rest when you're off work?" asked Jones, looking at Ronalt curiously.

"There's a big problem! Look at this virus, do you have a way to fix it?" Ronald came back to his senses and quickly pointed to the LCD screen.

Jones reached over and leaned closer to the LCD screen, froze.

Ronald stretched out his hand and pointed to the data that changed in several places in the virus data layer, looked at Jones with a life-saving gaze, and said for help: "The core program of this virus, you see here, here, their core system will change, you say, how do we crack this virus?"

"How is it possible? Is this virus still a logical program? What kind of algorithm is this? How is this data structure?" As if the cognition was subverted by the data structure of the virus, Jones's black face turned white in vain, and his black and white eyes bulged out, as if he had seen a ghost.

"You can't help it? It seems that Bitcoin can't be saved. Ronald said in great pain.

"Don't worry, let the head come over and have a look!" Jones persuaded Ronalt, and then continued to ask, "Is there a problem with this server?

Ronald's face turned pale, covered his face and wanted to cry without tears: "Everything is wrong, all servers have been invaded by this virus." ”

Hearing this, Jones glanced at Ronald sympathetically, he was miserable this time! I am afraid that he will have to lose his job.
