"Very well, let's sign this document then. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Seeing little Ida nodding, as if by magic, Alice instantly pulled out a set of documents from behind her!

So, I only heard Billy Horn behind him whisper to Bob, "Boss, this is ready for a long time." ”

The interaction of the employees was unnoticed by Ada, who simply took the document and read it very seriously. Of course, this is just a very formal confidentiality agreement, exactly the same as any company that requires employees to sign, but it will make provisions on the specific confidentiality content, which is not unusual in itself.

So, after satisfying her initial curiosity, Ada quickly signed her name on this document.

"Ada...... Wang?" Looking at the girl's last name, Alice's smiling expression became more and more interesting: "It seems that we are really fateful, okay, yes, Ada, do you want me to test you myself? If your IQ is qualified, maybe I will hire you as my personal secretary." ”

"If you want to break the child labor law," Ada's voice was immature, but unambiguous, "Miss Alice, tell me what interesting experiments are being conducted in your lab?"

"Yes, but don't forget, you've already signed a contract with me. Alice, who had bitten the word "contract" from the beginning, was like an old witch who abducted children, and under the silent laughter of several other colleagues, she took Ada's hand and walked out of here: "So, if you dare to tell the secret here, MI6 will arrest you to the FBI on your behalf......"

The kid who hadn't graduated from elementary school was so confused after all, holding Ada's hand, Alice triumphantly walked towards the elevator room.

Then, go straight to the second basement level.

"There's even underground," Ida whispered, standing in the elevator, watching the lights quickly decrease in number, "I didn't even pay attention last night." ”

Alice smiled silently, her eyes swept from the floor button five to b2.

With a clang, the door opened.

"As a local, I think you know when the lab started. It's still a familiar road, it's still a familiar way to open the door, Alice is doing what she should do, but she doesn't listen: "But it's more important to understand that the laboratory is different from the school after all, and you don't have to be ready to start working until everything is ready." So, despite the fact that the overall construction was finally completed in April, and it is only in May, the research itself has already begun. ”

Listening to the completely understandable explanation, Ada's eyes immediately widened when the metal door was opened after fingerprint verification.

This is where the new supercomputer arrays are located, each with a chassis that is no less than the size of the largest refrigerator, and more than a dozen of them. This was the machine room, Ida immediately realized, and what made her even more excited was that the large set of machinery was obviously working, and the sound of humming fans filled the space, and the stuffiness was the absolute main theme, even if there was definitely a ventilation system here.

"Supercomputer...... she said in amazement, looking at one of the cases, "Miss Alice, you really have a point, this big guy alone must not be casually revealed to outsiders, right?"

"Hmm...... It depends on what you think about. From the point of view of publicizing the strength of the research institute to the outside world, and then recruiting more research institutes and funding foundations, we still need to disclose its existence. ”

Alice is explaining, but Ada, who has just signed a non-disclosure agreement, has a completely different mode of operation from ordinary people: "What if a competitor sneaks in here and steals information from the computer?"

There are more and more surprises brought by the little girl, and Alice really feels that she doesn't know her in vain: "Yo, the idea is good, so how about I test you now?"

Ida looked left and right, the huge computer room was full of chassis, but she didn't see anyone else: "Well, come on!"

"Okay, listen to the question. Alice took the girl's hand and walked: "If this institute undertakes some high-end computing tasks from IBM, or Cisco, or Microsoft, or NASA or Lockheed, and then their competitors learn of this news and want to come to our institute to make trouble." It is known that their methods of disrupting are to terminate the operation and steal the operation data, and ask, how can we defend ourselves?"

This exam question is customized for the two of them, although they have only known each other for more than a day, Alice really wants to cultivate this magical girl of the same race. After all, not every ten-year-old kid can sneak a stolen car in the middle of the night and race several kilometers all the way to sneak into the action. Since she has encountered such a little wonder, of course she will not let it go easily.

"Well, this is ......" Standing in the computer room on the second basement floor, Ada thought about it very seriously. This short-haired girl held her arms and lowered her head, thinking while her mouth kept making a deep moaning sound, and suddenly she saw that she was really quite presentable.

Then, she was quick to give an answer.

"The most violent way to stop the operation of the computer is to shoot directly at the chassis with a machine gun, or to bomb the basement indiscriminately with an RPG. ”

Alice: "............"

"Of course, this is the most inappropriate tactic. Therefore, the second method of violence is to directly cut off the power supply. There are two ways to cut off the power supply, one is to sneak into the second underground floor and directly force the computer to shut down, and the other is to find out the power supply system of the institute and remotely cut off the power by pulling the gate. ”

Alice: "And what would you do if it were you?"

Ida recalled the process of walking into the computer room, nodded vigorously, and said, "I must first know the structural diagram of the research institute, otherwise I will definitely not be able to even do where the computer is." So, now that you know the structure diagram, it is very simple to know the power supply system, and it is obviously more feasible to remotely cut off the power than to walk through the security door and face the computer host directly******* Lisi: "Very good." So the second question, what if you want to steal the data?"

Ada thought seriously again, paused for half a minute, and then she said: "I will consider network intrusion first, if this computer is connected to an external network, whether it is the internal LAN of the institute or the wider outside world, I will directly select the target computer and carry out network invasion on this supercomputer to obtain the ......."

Alice couldn't help but interject, "Was it the 'Exchangegate' incident that inspired you?"

"Yes," Ida nodded seriously, "Miss Alice, don't look at my age, this incident didn't happen in my last life." ”

Alice laughed: "Indeed, indeed, you were eight years old at the time, and you could remember it if you had the heart." What if there's no internet?"

This is the most difficult problem, and the lack of an Internet connection means that the intruder may really need to come to this computer room on the second basement floor through various means to carry out the closest physical incursion.

"There is no Internet ......" So, Ida was not stumped immediately, frowning and thinking about it. Alice watched from the sidelines, of course, not interjecting at will, just waiting to see what Ada could say again.

"Impossible!" However, after a moment, Ada directly vetoed the situation.

"It's impossible not to be connected, at least this one is absolutely impossible. If it's not connected to the Internet, your employees will have to stay in the computer room all the time when they use it, in front of that console. But this is obviously an unrealistic situation, at least in this research institute, you need to enter a dozen digits of the password and then match the fingerprint verification of the security door, it is clear that people are not allowed to enter and exit casually!"

Ida said to each other, and at the end, she looked up at Alice vigorously: "This is my answer!"

What an answer, a good analysis, Alice is really pleasantly surprised. She simply asks a technical question, and Ida uses behavioral psychology in her answer. It's not just about how to "invade", but about on-the-spot investigation and specific analysis of specific problems, which is not uncommon for older people, but this girl is only ten years old after all.

"Good. But seeing that Adamin was looking like she wanted to be praised, Alice simply complimented her.

"So as you can see, Ada, this ETA10-G/8 is the world's first supercomputer with a speed of more than 10 billion operations per second, in order to buy the first testing machine back to my own research institute, I spent a very high cost, and the advance payment was tens of millions. So guess what's it doing right now?"

A supercomputer in operation, Ida had already seen the flashing lights everywhere. God knows when this operation began, and God knows what it was doing, so Ada immediately guessed that there was definitely a next step in Alice's problem.

"The name you gave to the institute was just a 'computer research center'. "But the development of computers only depends on the improvement of hardware functions, and the focus is on basic technology," she said. In terms of software, you can already develop that ...... The Microsoft operating system definitely doesn't need to set up a special research center for this, so it's definitely not the software side. ”

For the information she currently has, Ida analyzed it very carefully and step by step, and in this whole process, Alice is just watching. Ternary computer research and development, it is impossible for the little girl to think so far, so what answer can she come up with?

If this girl can really get the answer she wants, then maybe she can really reuse this potential appropriately......

"After all, the name of the Computer Research Center is very vague. I heard Ida say: "So, this institution is actually just a trick, what secret experiments are you really carrying out that can't be known to the outside world!?"

With her back to the busy array of supercomputer chassis, Alice smiled with satisfaction. (To be continued.) )
