Chapter 146: The NSA's Confusion
Gangyi shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, I just checked the relevant information of WikiLeaks through the central computer of the CIA, this organization has a deep background, there are many chaebol funds behind it, and many hacker organizations are connected, and the relationship network is very complicated." And the other party's super-large registered IP is also fake, they are very careful, obviously carefully prepared, and do not leave any traces. ”
Chen Xin nodded, a little hesitant, if this news was really sent by WikiLeaks, he was really interested in cooperating with the other party, but if it was fake, then the motive behind this was worth pondering.
Chen Xin thought for a moment and said, "Gangyi, reply to the other party." ”
Gangyi hesitated: "Old bean, but those monitoring ......"
Chen Xin said: "Don't worry about them, they can't intercept our messages anyway, except for knowing that we sent an internal text message to a certain ID, they probably can't do anything." And no matter how much they check, it is impossible to find out to us. ”
Since the "Goddess of Dawn" incident, many people in Shijie have been soaking in the super large every day and paying attention to the new actions of the [Wisdom Cube]. In particular, the recent live broadcast of "Hunting bin Laden" has greatly increased the interest of the intelligence agencies of Shijie in the [Wisdom Cube], and almost every day, countless data streams are infested on the super large server, monitoring the [Wisdom Cube]'s every move.
Chen Xin doesn't care, anyway, as long as there is a steel hammer, these guys don't want to find themselves.
Gangyi said: "Okay, old bean, how should I write a reply?"
Chen Xin thought for a while and said, "In this way, I will retell your record: Respected WikiLeaks." Hello! For your proposal, we are very interested, I hope that we can establish more contacts in the future in terms of intelligence sharing, the specific contact information is mainly SMS in the super base camp military forum station, if there is a need for file transmission, then we can negotiate and solve the problem - wisdom Rubik's Cube!
As soon as Chen Xin's voice fell, the text content in the short text box of the super-large page station was also entered, and Chen Xin said: "Steel hammer, send!"
"Okay!"
The browser page will jump to a light curtain that shows that the SMS has been sent.
……
United States. Fort Meade, Maryland. In the forest, a few hundred meters away from Washington Park in Baltimore City, the NSA headquarters building stands majestically.
"Director, we have received a reply from the 'Wisdom Cube'. ”
A red-haired young man stood up and said to NSA Director Alexander, who was waiting in his studio.
Alexander said, "Keep monitoring!"
The red-haired youth nodded. I focused my attention on the computer in front of me.
There are more than 20 computers in front of and behind the studio. More than a dozen jishu experts are busy but not chaotic. From time to time, the keypad can also be heard.
"It's strange, the server of the super base camp still can't detect any login information from the other party. Jon, did your group find anything?"
The red-haired youth asked another man who was typing on a keyboard.
Jon shook his head. "No, there's no trace left, it's like this ID doesn't exist." It stands to reason that this is impossible, how did the other party do it?"
There are basically first-class experts in the hacking world, and a few of them were well-known among hackers before joining the NSA.
is like the red-haired youth, his real name is Mike Jones, but if it is mentioned that his online ID is [Mafia Boy], it is estimated that few people do not know.
A few years ago, he was the author of the famous Conficket worm.
In late 2008, the Conficker worm exploited a large number of vulnerabilities in the Microsoft operating system to infect millions of computers and business networks across the entire Shijie area.
Once the Conficker worm takes control of an infected machine, it connects a large number of computers into a large botnet that can be controlled by the creator of the virus.
The virus brought Jones a huge amount of money, but unfortunately Jones stumbled in a later invasion and was directly approached by FBI agents.
Since then, he has been working for the NSA with all his heart.
As for the man named Jon who had just spoken to him, it was also not a fuel-efficient lamp.
JON HAS USED PHISHING ATTACKS TO HACK INTO THE ACCOUNTS OF TENS OF THOUSANDS OF KEY GOOGLE GMAIL FIGURES, INCLUDING SENIOR U.S. GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, OFFICIALS IN JAPAN, SOUTH KOREA AND OTHER ASIAN COUNTRIES, AS WELL AS MILITARY OFFICIALS AND JOURNALISTS.
During the attack, victims are forced to open the emails of acquaintances, using social engineering jishu and highly personalized email messages to lure them into clicking on the links they send, leading them to malicious sites disguised as Gmail login pages to steal the victim's email login information.
Later, Google suspected that the mastermind behind the hack was from China, and announced that it would stop the "filtering and review" of Google's China search service and transfer the search service from Chinese mainland to Hong Kong.
It wasn't until Jon used very clumsy tactics to blackmail a member of the U.S. Congress that the incident came to light.
For this reason, the U.S. federal court sentenced Jon to ten years in prison, but as soon as he came out of the court, before he entered prison, the NSA people came to the door and said that as long as Jon worked for the NSA for five years, he could regain his freedom, so Jon agreed without hesitation.
It can be said that everyone present has more or less similar experiences to the two of them, and any person here can be regarded as a famous boss in the hacker world.
But no one expected that so many cattle people would jointly deal with a network user, and when they were sure that the other party was online, they still couldn't find the trace of the "Wisdom Rubik's Cube", which made people very speechless.
It's like you know that someone is standing in front of you, you can hear him, you can feel his breath, but you can't see or touch him, which is a little scary.
Previously, these NSA computer experts conducted a half-year investigation on the "Wisdom Rubik's Cube", and this time they finally tested the other party through this means, but the result was even more frustrating.
The director of the NSA Alexander looked at ease, and he knew very well in his heart that an organization that could have star stones must have a lot of uniqueness in the computer field, and how could it be dealt with by a few hackers.
Anyway, the purpose of this operation is not to track down the other party, everything that should be done has already been done, Director Alexander looked at his watch, and said to everyone in the studio: "You continue to monitor, pay attention, you are not allowed to contact the other party, you are not allowed to startle the snake, everything will be said after I come back." (To be continued......)
PS: Sorry, it's late, and the second one has to wait for the early morning
