"Cisco Network Shocks Backdoor, Information Security Is in Danger!"

"Telfort Network Bidding Update, Cisco Lying Shot!"

"Is the boss of Panstar a top hacker, or do the Chinese have spies at Cisco?"

No one thought that a good Telfort company's online bidding would suddenly poke a hole in the sky because of a whimsical idea of an intern.

First Dutch newspapers, then TV stations came to the door for interviews, and then European media groups flocked to Amsterdam as if they had been stabbed in a hornet's nest.

News Corp, Sky Broadcasting, Bonnier, Telewest......

As if they had smelled the most tempting smell of blood, the media predators were looking for a way to contact Pan Star.

The document that Zhou Shuo released first had already been confirmed to be authentic at this time. Cisco's system has a reserved backdoor, which is incredible to most people.

This can't be Cisco's own meaning, there is no impermeable wall in the world, once people are aware of their actions, the result will inevitably cause public anger! For Cisco, as an enterprise, this simply outweighs the loss.

If you think about it, you know that this must have been at the behest of the U.S. government.

Later, the Prism Project of the United States began in 2007, but the world's network construction boom began in 1995.

Zhou Shuo participated in many research and development projects of communication equipment in his previous life, after the prism door came out. Of course, he has also participated in the national security appraisal of Cisco equipment.

And this backdoor interface is his research results at that time. Reverse engineering of a range of devices from Cisco. At that time, the identification team found three common backdoor interfaces. These three interfaces basically cover the full range of Cisco's product products from before 2000. Cisco's devices use this interface released by Zhou Shuo.

Devices introduced after 2,000 years and 1 use a different interface that allows not only to listen to the number of jùs, but also to operate the device. Two thousand and seven years later, the prism gate was activated, and Cisco replaced the more powerful backdoor interface.

Just think about it, Prism Gate can actually listen to the German Chancellor's communications, how can it be with a simple system BUG? Know that bugs are uncontrollable, find bugs. Exploiting bugs will definitely leave traces. Because bugs are flaws in the system, not specifically designed to hack into the system.

European countries are not without network experts, and maybe a bug can successfully carry out a single incursion. But if you want to listen to the system unknowingly for a long time, how can it be possible without a specially reserved backdoor interface?

And the surveillance work of the Americans did not start in 2007 with the Prism program, as early as 2001 after the 911 incident, there were rumors that the NSA had begun to start eavesdropping on the United States. The United States is the largest user of Cisco network equipment, and it can be said that the entire information superhighway in the United States was built using masonry and cement called Cisco.

Without Cisco's cooperation, where would the NSA have such a high level of technology, would it have invaded all the network systems in the United States? This is in terms of cost and manpower. are all unacceptable.

Of course, in 1997, neither Fanxing nor the major European media dared to openly bite the US government. A few years after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The dog chain that the United States has put on their heads has not loosened much. The dignified world unipolar, the blue star overlord, and the international police, which one dares to look at it squarely?

But Cisco is different, anyway. Cisco is just a company, after all. In the face of national power, there is no advantage. This is especially true in developed countries such as Western Europe. America's traditional allies, even if it is to quell public anger. I can only throw it out as a scapegoat.

Just when European countries were criticizing Cisco, Panstar once again appeared on the front pages of major newspapers. As the only company that can compete with Cisco in network technology, in order to clear the suspicion of security risks in its own equipment, Panstar announced that the source code of network equipment will be completely disclosed!

The core of network equipment is algorithms, and its hardware requirements are relatively simple, and chips such as digital pumps, compression and decoding, and central processing units do not have too high requirements for design and manufacturing. But in terms of software algorithms, it is very, very important!

And Pan-Star is willing to publish its own source code, that is, to make the core technology program public, and other companies do not need to pay a penny of tuition, and directly use it for their own use.

This hand has also been used by the Huaxing Group in history. However, Huaxing was forced to release its source code because it was forced to helpless, before Australia excluded Huaxing from participating in the national broadband plan project, and then the United States refused Huaxing's products to enter the US market on the grounds that Huaxing had a Chinese military background. Under the influence of Cisco and the U.S. government, many countries around the world have blocked Huaxing's equipment. In order to prove his innocence, Huaxing released the source code of his equipment.

And historically, it was Huaxing's move to publish its own source code that fiercely responded to Cisco's slanderous accusations against it.

But Fanxing chose to publish its source code at this time, not because it was forced to be helpless, but because Zhou Shuo had already made a decision.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Cisco fell into the "Ciscogate" incident, Fanxing resolutely threw out its own source code in order to prove its innocence.

The results of Telfort's bid evaluation have not yet come out, and the major European network operators have already approached the door.

In today's world, Cisco used to be the only one in network equipment and the absolute industry hegemon. The Majia Zlink company approved by the Pan Han Group is the only opponent that can compete with Cisco in the full range of network equipment. Although limited by the shortcomings of fame and marketing network, it did not challenge Cisco's strength head-on. However, from the test of Telfort, the network equipment produced by Pan Han Group is not different from Cisco.

Even in some performance, it is better than Cisco. At the same time, Panstar also released the source code of the device, and the most worrying security issues have also been guaranteed. Operators who are eager to replace Cisco network equipment certainly regard Panstar as their first choice.

"I'm the Francisco manager of Telefónica, I want to meet your boss, I want to meet Zhou from China!"

"Telefónica's? Go aside! I'm from BT, hurry up and arrange it for me first! ”

"Damn the British, we France Telecom were the first to arrive, so why should we give it to you? What about the gentlemanly manners of your Englishmen? ”

"Stop arguing!" A big man suddenly squeezed out of the crowd outside the door of Panxing, and said angrily: "We Vodafone are honestly queuing, what are you embarrassed to show off?" ”

……

"Hehe, I'm sorry everyone, there are more things going on outside, and I delayed a bit." Zhou Shuo closed the door of the office, and the noise outside suddenly became quieter.

"The three are representatives of Ericsson, Nokia and Motorola, right? On behalf of Fanxing and China Fanhan Group, I would like to welcome you. ”

"Hello Mr. Zhou, I'm Nick Carter from Ericsson."

"I'm Brian Little from Nokia."

Kevin. Richardson. ”

The three deep-eyed and high-nosed foreigners introduced themselves, shook hands with Zhou Shuo, and then sat back down. Although these three people did not report their positions in their respective enterprises, Zhou Shuo believed that the weight of the information sent over before, and the three of them would definitely not send someone to deal with it.

The reason why I don't dare to apply for the position directly is that I am afraid that the meaning of mentioning the two next to me is heavier than the meaning of mentioning myself. The three giants of the mobile phone industry could not be uninterested in the thing in Zhou Shuo's hands.

Zhou Shuo did not sit back in his office chair, but sat down on the sofa opposite the three of them, and said with a smile: "As the three giants of the mobile phone industry in the world today, the three companies are also famous. The first thing I did with you this time was to promote our network equipment, including wired, optical and wireless GSM network equipment. ”

The three people sitting opposite Zhou Shuo glanced at each other and nodded slightly, and Nick Carter took the lead and said: "Although in the bidding of Telfort Company, Ericsson and Panstar Company had some misunderstandings. But since it was a misunderstanding, the explanation was over. Ericsson wants to immediately purchase $400 million in network equipment from Panstar to replace Cisco equipment at key organizations. ”

"We at Nokia also hope to be able to purchase some network equipment, and the specific number is still being calculated, and we hope that Panhan Group can set aside a sufficient share."

"I'm sorry, but Motorola has no plans to purchase Panhan Group network equipment for the time being......"

"Hehe, it's okay, it's not a big deal." Zhou Shuo is not surprised by this, Motorola is different from Ericsson and Nokia, it is a native American company and a manufacturer of radio communication equipment in World War II for the US military. It has a deep relationship with the political and military circles of the United States, and of course it will not throw its arms into the Pan-Han Group just because Cisco has a backdoor.

"In addition to promoting network products, one of the more important things I invite the three of them today is to join the GSM Technology Standardization Alliance." (To be continued......)
