The Walnut stationmaster called the boss in charge of network security to the front.

"Consultant Zhang, this is the director of our site's network security department, Owens, you can ask him if you have any questions."

Zhang Jue nodded: "Hello Director Owens, I am Zhang Jue, the consultant in charge of investigating the attack on site 15, and I have some questions to ask."

"Oh, consultant." Owens sounded impatient, "Say what you want to say, our work is not done yet."

Zhang Jue has a special status, and the headquarters spent "great efforts" to invite him to help. The walnut station manager just wanted to reprimand Owens, but Zhang Jue stopped him with a wave.

"Director Owens, it looks like you don't welcome me." He laughed.

"I don't welcome anyone from the headquarters." Owens looked cold, as if I wasn't targeting anyone, "If it weren't for those laymen who always come to point fingers, the site's network defense will not be breached. The matter bears the main responsibility!"

Looking at his appearance, needless to say, Zhang Jue knew that he must have been angered by the headquarters.

Regardless of all walks of life, the most taboo is for laymen to lead experts.

These great gods at site15 think highly of themselves, and they must look down on everyone.

But Zhang Jue is a person who can talk to people and talk nonsense when he sees people, so he naturally knows how to deal with such a straight man.

He glanced at Owens with disdain: "Boss, are you really that good? The network defense of the site has been breached, and this can also be blamed on the headquarters? Is it because you are not as skilled as others?"

"Fart!" Owens seemed to be touched, "The old firewall has been in use for more than ten years, and there has never been a security incident. If they didn't insist on upgrading the firewall, how could there be loopholes in the system, and what about the enemy? There will be opportunities to take advantage of!"

Owens was emotional and spoke very fast, Zhang Jue hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, you said that the enemy caught the loophole because you upgraded the firewall. I don't know the logic of this. The firewall upgrade shouldn't be more and more Is it safer?"

"Cut, layman is layman." Owens snorted, "Do you think the firewall upgrade of site15 can be completed in a few minutes? The whole process will last for several hours! In these few hours, we have to restart hundreds of servers, thousands of services and components,

Although the site's firewall uses distributed and clustered services, when other security servers restart, the firewall's defense strategy against the outside world will undoubtedly be spread to other units. As long as the enemy has mastered this time node, then they can Taking advantage of the situation, you say, it is not their fault, who is the fault? ! "

Owens talked a lot, such as server components, distributed clusters, etc., all of which were words that Zhang Jue couldn't understand, but he understood the central idea.

To put it simply, when the security service of the server is upgraded, the defense of the entire site is the weakest. According to Owens, the enemy invaded the network of site15 at that time and successfully lurked down.

Seeing that Owens was so sure, Zhang Jue asked, "Is there any evidence?"

Owens turned his head away: "Such an obvious thing! Do you still need evidence? A layman is a layman!"

Well, seeing this posture, Zhang Jue knew that they were also guessing.

These big guys are very conceited about their technology, they don't want to believe that the firewall was breached under normal operating conditions, so it should be taken for granted that the problem must be at this time, and it must be the fault of those people in the headquarters!

Zhang Jue thought for a while and asked, "I heard that some defense systems will have logs. If the enemy really invaded at that time, they should leave some traces."

Zhang Jue looked at Owens, wanting to hear what he had to say, but who would have thought that the big bull snorted and didn't speak.

Robert, the station master's secretary, explained embarrassingly: "Consultant Zhang, in theory, it is true. The enemy should have left traces when he invaded our network, but afterward we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the logs on the server, but found no Traces of an enemy invasion."

"So that's how it is."

Zhang Jue snorted, and was about to continue asking, but Owens continued: "The other party must be a very skilled expert. Not only can he judge the precise time when we start each service and component, but he also cleverly hides it. His own traces make us unable to detect his existence, and then when necessary, give us a fatal blow - just like your CN swordsmen, killing people invisible."

"puff--"

Zhang Jue almost couldn't hold it back. He didn't expect that Owens seemed to be an nerdy nerd with a wide range of knowledge. It seemed that he had read many martial arts novels on CN.

Zhang Jue thought for a while and said with a smile: "Secretary Robert, Director Owens, I don't understand technology, but from your description, I think you have overcomplicated the problem."

Owens raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

Zhang Jue did not directly throw out his own conclusion, but smiled: "Let me tell you a story I have heard."

"The story also happened in a large Internet company. Although their security team is not as strong as site15, the high salary has attracted many big names to join them."

"One day, they received a threatening letter, and the content of the threatening letter was to send money to a bitcoin account, otherwise they would hack their company's network."

"These tech giants are naturally not frightened by such a pediatric thing, so they don't take it seriously."

"Then at ten o'clock that day, their company's building suddenly lost power for ten seconds."

"Immediately, there was another email: this is a warning, if you don't pay, you will bear the consequences."

"The big cows are a little panicked. Like you, they checked the logs of the entire server and checked the company's circuit. Everything is normal."

"At ten o'clock the next day, even though those technical experts had been ready and prepared, the power outage still came on time, this time for 30 seconds."

"We know that a power outage of tens of seconds will have little impact on a mature large factory. After all, all servers have backup power supplies, but the hacker's superb technology makes them terrified."

"So they compromised and transferred the money to that bitcoin account, and the matter was over."

"The network security team of this big factory has changed one after another, but they still can't crack that person's method."

"One day a few years later, the hacker was arrested abroad because of PiaoC, and after he was sent back to China, the truth came to light."

Having said that, Zhang Jue paused and looked at the expressions of the people around him.

It's not that he delayed the update on purpose, it's entirely a sequela from hearing his father talk about storytelling when he was a child.

As expected, several people, including the stationmaster of Walnut, listened with gusto, and even Owens turned his ears sideways, wanting to hear about the later development.

After all, the story Zhang Jue told was very similar to what happened to them here.

Zhang Jue smiled and said, "You guys, do you want to guess how that man did it?"

Among the few people, Simmons and Zhang Jue had the closest relationship. He quickly waved his hand: "Consultant Zhang, don't be a fool, just tell me."

Seeing that several other people also nodded in agreement, Zhang Jue laughed: "This hacker once went to this company to investigate, and then bought their company's electrician."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Several people were speechless for a while.

Is the end result of this story so boring?

Several halls looked at Zhang Jue with a strange look, and the expressions on their faces translated into four words - are you fucking kidding me?

Zhang Jue spread his hands: "I know you want to hear the legend of a hacker fighting against a group of people, but no, the story is as simple as that."

Robert was thoughtful: "Consultant Zhang, you mean, the same situation is encountered in our site?"

Zhang Jue nodded: "Eight or nine is not far from ten."

"How do you know that?" Owens said dissatisfied, "How do you know that the other party is not a master who sees the beginning and the end of the dragon."

Zhang Jue really wanted to tell Director Owens to read less of those online novels on CN, they were all cool and not nutritious.

He said: "If the opponent has dealt with you for a long time and finally wins with a slight advantage, then I believe he is a master, but Director Owens, if you say that you can't even find any traces of the opponent's invasion, I'm sorry , I don't believe that there are such awesome people in the world, do you think it makes sense?"

What Zhang Jue said was ingenious.

Owens saw that Zhang Jue was not pleasing to the eye, and actually wanted to refute him, but Zhang Jue was praising him, and he couldn't deny it, saying that these people on the site were actually rookies.

Just like on the streets in the northeast of CN, if you think someone is not pleasing to your eyes, ask him: "What do you think?"

But if the other party says at this time: "I think you look like my father!", even if his attitude is extremely arrogant, you have to admit it, right?

Owens is in this awkward position right now.

He waited for a long time, but he couldn't figure out how to answer Zhang Jue's words, so he simply kept silent.

Robert looked amused, and asked, "Consultant Zhang, even if what you said was true, the incident at site 15 was caused by human beings, so how should we find out that person?"

Zhang Jue showed an inscrutable smile: "From now on, things have been separated from the technical level. This is what I am best at. Director Owens, now please invite the elder brothers who will be responsible for upgrading the firewall that night to come one by one. Come in the meeting room, and leave the rest to me, and you all just wait for my good news."

...

Several network security officers were placed in the corridor outside the laboratory door.

Robert looked solemn and said to them: "Everyone, the two in the room are special commissioners sent by the headquarters to investigate the attack on the site. They have questions for you. I hope everyone can cooperate."

Everyone said in unison: "Yes! Lord Robert!"

Seeing his complexion, one of the researchers asked, "Master Robert, what's wrong with you?"

"Hey, don't mention it." Robert shook his head, and he pointed to the meeting room with his chin, "The two people inside are not easy to mess with. Recently, there has been such a big incident on the site. You also know that the headquarters is here. I'm here to hold you accountable, I hope you... Hey, you can take care of yourself."

Robert said again and again, and left again, leaving several programmers looking at each other, and an ominous premonition lingered in everyone's mind.

After a while, the door of the conference room opened.

According to the order Robert had lined up before, Malfoy walked in first.

When Malfoy entered the meeting room, he saw the two special commissioners sitting upright with serious faces, and he knew that they were not easy to mess with.

Especially the oriental man with black hair and black eyes on the left, he can even feel the haze emanating from the other party.

Lord Robert told him that this person seems to be the famous Consultant Zhang.

He never knew that the other party was such a vicious person. Judging from the murderous look in the other party's eyes, it seemed that he wanted to skin his skin and cramp.

Malfoy didn't know what he was about to face.

Just looking at each other, his feet have already started to go weak.

When he finally got to the seat in the middle, he just sat down when he heard the consultant shout loudly: "Malfoy, why are you doing this?!"

Malfoy was so frightened that he shivered and said tremblingly: "Zhang, Consultant Zhang, what are you talking about? I, I don't understand, what did I do..."

"Don't understand?" The consultant snorted coldly, "Do you need me to remind you of what you did yourself? It was you who tampered with the server that paralyzed the defense system of site15, didn't you!"

It was only then that Malfoy knew that the other party suspected that he did it, and quickly said: "My lord, it's really not me..."

"Still arguing with me!" Consultant Zhang slapped the table and slammed, "Simmons, kill him!"

After receiving the order, the person sitting next to Consultant Zhang grinned grimly, took out a pistol, and walked towards Malfoy step by step.

Malfoy was so scared that he fell off the stool.

Simmons walked towards him step by step, and finally came to him, stepped on his chest, and pointed the gun at his head: "Tell me, is it you!"

"My lord, it's really not me—"

His words were interrupted by a gunshot.

Malfoy looked at Simmons in horror, covering his stomach and closing his eyes.

Zhang Jue waved his hand and said to the staff beside him, "Drag away!"

The door of the conference room opened, and several people waiting outside saw Malfoy being carried away.

They didn't know what happened inside, but the gunshot was heard.

The faces of a few people turned pale all of a sudden.

The person inside shouted: "Next!"

Whiteker, who was ranked second, was ashamed.

Sure enough, less than five minutes after he entered, there was another gunshot.

Immediately afterwards, his body was also carried out.

The remaining three people looked at me and I looked at you, and they all had the urge to escape.

But at this moment, two teams of security personnel suddenly appeared at both ends of the corridor, as if they had anticipated their thoughts.

Next, the third and fourth security officers did not admit that they did it, so without exception, they were all shot by Simmons.

Owens, who was watching all this on the surveillance camera, worriedly said to the Walnut station master: "My lord, this consultant Zhang, is his method effective? If we still can't find it, we will have no way to explain it to these employees in the future."

The walnut stationmaster stroked his hair, a little helpless: "Actually, I don't know, just like what Consultant Zhang said, when it comes to procedures, we are experts, but we can't do anything else, look at that Consultant Zhang , like a human being, if anyone falls into his hands, he will probably be stripped of his skin."

As if to confirm what the walnut stationmaster said, while they were talking, the last security guard also entered the meeting room. He hadn't walked a few steps before kneeling down in front of Zhang Jue and Simmons.

"Please, don't, don't kill me, I will recruit everything—"
