Chapter 329: Driving the Tiger and Chasing the Wolf
When Sao came out of the office, the god of the face was very relaxed
After getting off Figo's safe building, he started calling the company, "Arrange for the website to be updated immediately." γγThe announcement said that Li'an has detected a new type of virus, which is specifically aimed at various hardware firewalls, routers, and other joint security products, and the destructive power is very amazing. β
"What? What is the name of the virus? Lao Sao scratched his chin and said, "You can think of any one, just be catchy!" β
"What are the characteristics of a virus?" Lao Sao's brows began to wrinkle, and he said that the name of the virus is all nonsense for you, how can there be any characteristics, and then he said: "The virus that attacked our firewall, what characteristics does it have, then what characteristics does this virus have!" β
"Do you want a feature code? Is the method of virus removal public? Is our virus database also updated? β
After a few questions, Lao Sao was stunned at the time, and when he came back to his senses, he yelled at the phone: "Do you have a long brain, don't you understand what I mean?" The other side suddenly gave in and hurried to do something.
hung up the phone, Lao Sao sighed. The heart said that they are all people, why is it so difficult to communicate, it is really a matter of life, do you want Lao Tzu to tell you clearly, saying that we are faking and covering up our shame?
Half an hour later, Li'an issued an announcement, and at the same time as they issued the announcement, they also submitted the signature code of the virus and the description of the hazard to the National Computer Virus Prevention and Control Center.
Subsequently, the National Computer Virus Prevention and Control Center issued an early warning for security enterprises, as well as those enterprises and units with large-scale security, routing and switching equipment in the network, reminding them to do a good job of virus prevention.
The security giants who were secretly making trouble were shocked at first, and then laughed their teeth out, I really didn't expect that the general security companies encountered such a shameful thing, it was for fear of covering it up. I don't know if I'm stupid or too smart, and I even solemnly handled this matter in accordance with the charter.
Everyone has the idea of watching the joke. The heart said you can do it, and when it gets bigger, Lao Tzu will see how you want to clean it up.
Soon, someone on the Internet fanned the flames and took out a list of Li'an's after-sales maintenance, saying that it was the virus monitored by Li'an. It's not like that at all, but Li'an's own products have loopholes and have been hacked, in order to cover up their shame, Li'an has to fabricate such a powerful virus.
These security giants have also learned to be smart this time, and they are not in a hurry to jump out and express their attitude, so as not to find out and hang a defendant sign for Li Anfang, just instigating people to make trouble in secret.
The headquarters of Jimen Iron Shell in the United States.
At this time, their president was swinging his club in the office, practicing the golf strokes, a lit cigar was placed on the shelf next to him, and he took a puff with two strokes, and if you listened carefully, you could hear him whisper a curse every time he swung his club: "*** Li Anfang!" β
The president didn't care at all about Li'an Defense suing him for infringement, he sued him, Lao Tzu had his own way to explain where the virus engine came from, and Li'an Defense might not be able to win the lawsuit; What he cares about is the phantom demon killing of Li'an. As a leader in the security industry, Symantec certainly knows how impactful it will be to the existing industry landscape with this new product that completely disrupts the existing security model.
Since three months ago, almost all security giants, including Syman Iron Shell, have thrown an olive branch to Li'an Defense, hoping to successfully get a mature solution for this product through acquisition, or joint venture cooperation between the two parties.
Syman Iron Shell did not choose to cooperate with Figo Security, and would not even include Figo Security in the list of considerations, because Figo Security had already made its attitude, and when they teased Microsoft Google, they told everyone that Figo Security will always be an independent software company and will not accept acquisitions, and in front of Figo Security, Syman Iron Shell cannot find the feeling of an industry leader.
The assistant knocked on the door and asked, "The virus hunters in the technical department have just detected the virus mentioned by Li'an, do we also set up virus alerts?" β
I always stick the club into the shelf next to it, "No! β
The assistant didn't understand why the president wanted to let him report all the situations related to Li Security, although the two sides were in a lawsuit, but for such a small sesame company, the assistant felt that there was really no need to pay so much attention, and the legal department could do it.
"The technical department said that the harm of the virus is a severity level, and if we don't warn about the virus, it seems that "the assistant is afraid that the president does not understand."
"Who can guarantee that their virus monitoring network will know all the viruses in the palm of their hand!" The chief concubine waved her hand, "Tell the technical department." No alarm, no solution! β
The assistant had no choice but to retire, close the door and leave.
The president spit out a smoke ring, and said in his heart that the virus was made by Lao Tzu, can I not know how harmful it is, in addition to endangering Li'an. That is, people and animals are not harmed.
This Li'an defense is a wishful thinking, and it is making a virus announcement in a bright way. He also deliberately released the signature code of the virus, not just to let everyone help him to prove that such a virus does exist, so that he can cover up his ugly things. It's a beautiful idea, now you just say that there is a virus, but you don't admit it, and then it's up to you to explain everything! When I got off work in the afternoon. The president changed his clothes and prepared to go out.
At this time, the assistant ran in again, "Cisco has sent us a request for assistance, hoping that we can immediately send some technicians to help them resist the attack of the virus!" β
"Send someone over and leave!" The president said that he also came to ask for help like this, and there will be several requests for assistance almost every day, and the objects of help are all large enterprises around the world, and Cisco is no exception, and the cooperation between the two sides in security is not once or twice.
The assistant was a little embarrassed. "Then what level of people do you think is appropriate for us to send over?"
"Just let the people in the technical department decide for themselves!" After the president finished speaking, he thought about it and said, "Send an expert to the past!" β
"Expert technicians are now at the customer's site!"
"Oh?" The president was a little surprised, "What's going on?" β
"There are quite a few customers today whose networks are down because of our security products!" The assistant snorted. "Many of them are big customers, so we send all the experts
The world's largest security service provider will have no one available, which makes the president stunned at first, and then sat back at his desk. Said: "How can this happen? Is the investigation clear? β
"I guess I'll figure it out right away!" The assistant was sweating on his head, "Not only here in our headquarters, but also in other branches, this situation has also occurred today!" β
The president secretly said that it was not good, the current situation, should have been born in the body of Li Anfang, how could it appear on the head of Simon Iron Shell, does Li Anfang really dare to rush to all the security giants?
The assistant saw that the president was a little distracted, so he said, "Cisco is still waiting for our reply!" β
"Bring back two expert-level personnel!" The president finally gave the order, and when the assistant went out, he paced back and forth in the house for two steps, feeling a little uneasy, he gambled that he would not dare to expand the situation, and now. The situation seems somewhat unexpected.
A little uneasy, the president of Syman Iron Shell made a few more phone calls, and when he confirmed that the situation on the side of several other security giants was normal, he was a little relieved, maybe he thought too much, and today's accident was just an accident.
Come home in the evening. The sleeping president of Saidan Iron Shell was woken up by an emergency phone call, which was from the company.
"What sting?" The president was a little impatient.
"A router owned by Cisco has a major security incident, and is currently being attacked by the virus, in view of the seriousness of the situation, Cisco hopes that we will jointly launch an emergency plan to prevent the further spread of the virus!" The person on duty in the company is about to make a report, and to start the emergency plan, it is necessary to get the president's will.
These large-scale Internet basic service enterprises, because the audience is too wide, once something fails, it may be irreparable, so they have signed this kind of emergency cooperation agreement with each other, when one of them has an emergency, they will start the emergency plan, with the help of other update channels, emergency networks to take measures to control and recover the situation.
"Is it serious?" The president asked.
"Quite serious. It's their field blade product that's wrong! This product is Cisco's flagship product in the enterprise market, accounting for a large share of the global enterprise router market, and if this device fails, it means that the world's enterprise networks are at risk.
"Activate the emergency plan and cooperate with Cisco to implement it!" After the president finished speaking, he added, "Allocate some more people to assist Cisco!" β
Hung up the phone, the uneasy feeling in the president's heart returned, this can't be done by Li Anfang, right? He was very skeptical, but after thinking about it, he really couldn't think of what the reason for Li Anfang to do this was, Li Anfang had no grievances with Cisco, and offended a basic service predator like Cisco, which would not be beneficial to Li Anfang.
They didn't have the motive, nor did they have the guts, so the president persuaded himself and lay back on the bed.
Arrived at the company the next day. I turned on the computer in the office and glanced at today's industry headlines, the president almost spilled that cup of hot coffee on himself, how could such a thing happen!
Cisco products were hit by a virus, albeit under Cisco's emergency response. The situation was controlled to a certain extent, but the annoyed Qike decided to investigate to the end, even if it was digging three feet into the ground, to find out the author of the virus.
After self-poisoning. For many years, the industry has never seen such a naked malignant destruction virus. It does not steal the number, the second does not consume your system resources, the purpose is very clear, modify your policy, and then lock the entire network, so that you have the network can not be used, its ultimate goal is to make all the networks that use Cisco equipment all paralyzed, so it is not difficult to imagine Cisco's anger, if you don't find out the culprit, then there will be more and more such attacks in the future.
This has nothing to do with Syman's iron shell, not enough to surprise the president of Syman, what really shocked him was a small addition after the headlines: Cisco has confirmed that the virus that attacks Cisco products is a variant of the "cake seller" virus.
The virus that sells cakes. Naturally, it was Li Anfang who claimed to have detected the virus yesterday!
This time, the president of Simon Iron Shell finally understood how vicious Li'an's mind was, and it was a good plan to kill people! From the beginning, Li Anfang knew that it was impossible for someone in the security community to sell the existence of the virus, so he started with Cisco, and he asked Cisco to prove that the virus really existed, and then borrowed Cisco's hand. Kill those who are secretly detrimental to Lei'an.
The president couldn't help but sweat on his head, he just figured out now, so what. Does he dare to say that the person who attacked the Cisco equipment was actually Li Anfang?
The president of Syman Iron Shell went to the official of Li Security, and now Li Security had already made an announcement last night, saying that he had caught two new variants of the virus that sold cakes, one for Cisco concave equipment, and the other for a joint security product under Syman Iron Shell.
Li Anfang had already calculated everything, and he opened up the position with a clear sword and a gun, which is nothing more than that you can't find any excuse to slander him in the future, but you can't understand what the intention of this move is at that time.
The president was extremely annoyed at this time, and he finally understood why Syman's iron shell customers had a large-scale accident yesterday, which was also the ghost of Li'an.
The assistant pushed the door in. Said: "Yesterday, the cause of the accident of our product was also investigated, it was a virus that infected our products, and the customer's network was blocked. β
βοΌοΌβ The president was very irritable and beat the assistant. Now that Cisco has stabbed the matter, if not, the brand of Syman Iron Shell will be smashed, and such a sluggish response is completely incommensurate with your reputation as the world's number one security service provider. Don't play immortal, Li Anfang, but let people stink the iron shell of Simon first!
What did the president of Simon Iron Shell think, he didn't think that Li Anfang would dare to do this, so he thought of Figo Security. This matter must be backed by Figo Security, and he also thinks so about the prosecution a few days ago.
Open the official website of Figo Security, and there is also a new security bulletin.
In the announcement, Figo Security made a painless comment on the virus that sold cakes, saying that this is a completely different new virus attack method, which is similar to the previous domain name server control incident. There are similarities in nature, which illustrate that hackers' attack methods are increasingly inclined to use the least amount of force to cause the most damage. At the same time, Figo Security also pointed out that compared with the current drastic changes in the personal security industry, service providers in the basic security industry are somewhat unenterprising, and they urgently need to change their thinking and create a new security model, otherwise they will not be able to cope with this new attack method.
The tone of this leader of the Ascher industry made the head of Simon Iron Shell crooked his nose, and his heart said that even if he wanted to say it. Then it should be up to Lao Tzu to say, which onion is your little Figo safe, and dare to point fingers at Lao Tzu's approach?
The president was angry. The consequences should have been serious, but after the announcement that the president is now Figo's safety, there is still a connection, so the consequences are a bit of a cup.
Figo Security's announcement said that this was a reference link, and the president wanted to know whose opinion Figo Security had consulted, but who knew that when he clicked in, the president himself was scared out of a cold sweat.
The reference link points to a blog, the owner of the blog is called Wolf Sister, she expressed a research analysis of the virus that sells cakes, saying that it is based on the reverse analysis of the virus, as well as the identification of technical characteristics, the author of this virus is likely to be from a person in the security community, in addition, the tracking of the source of the spread of the virus, also just confirms this judgment, because the Wolf Sister's current virus originally came out of a server controlled by a security company. At the end of the analysis, Wolf Sister also mentioned one thing, saying that at a security conference two years ago, a security engineer had demonstrated similar technology, but I didn't expect this virus to explode for two years, and it can still cause so much damage.
The president of Simon Iron Shell wiped his sweat, and the security person he mentioned two years ago was the one he commissioned this time, but he didn't expect that this *** would actually take the virus out of his server, damn. You dare to do such an unreliable thing, and you are embarrassed to mix with the security community?
The commission came out of the underground intelligence network, although the other party didn't know who was entrusted, but the president was still a little uneasy, he decided to call this guy, even if it was an "unintentional" reminder, so that this guy could quickly wipe his ass clean!
The president is smart. The call didn't go directly to the guy. Instead, he called his company, and it was the other party's assistant who answered the phone, saying: "I didn't come to work every day, and the company called his home, but no one answered."
If you know his whereabouts, please let us know! β
The president sat in the chair and didn't come back to his senses for a long time, he understood that it was too late, and that guy was probably drinking tea with the cybersecurity officials of the White House at the moment! I wanted to smoke a stick of Li'an, but I was instead pumped a stick by Cisco, and this stick is really incredible!
"Sister Wolf, Sister Wolf," the president muttered twice, then picked up the phone and dialed to his assistant, "Help me check a person's information, her name is Sister Wolf!" β
