Bit Mania [Hacking]

Kevin Mitnick, is 30 years old.The end of the [-]th century was the most glorious era for this legendary hacker, invading the MI Air Defense Operations Center, the Pacific Telephone Company, the Pentagon, Sony... and so on. The deeds are enough to be put on the screen or in textbooks, or hung on the bulletin boards of citizens' communities all the year round. The most wanted criminal is on the face list.

On Christmas of 94, the invasion of the San Diego Supercomputing Center was the pinnacle of its hacking skills. In this battle, Kevin's name is well known all over the world.Before this, no one could believe that personal power can be so strong that he can go to and from various places like no one in the land. Human life is increasingly inseparable from the information network. As long as this man is willing, move Half of human civilization can be destroyed with the flick of a finger.

However, afterward, the legendary career of this great hacker ushered in a very dramatic turning point. He did not expect that the insulting challenge letter thrown to some information security experts after successfully sabotaging San Diego caused a lot of trouble. Fucked a computer expert named Tsutomu Shimomura - as you all know, the bastards from the country of Neon are nothing but freaks.It was such a persevering pervert who brought Kevin's hacking career to an abrupt end when it was at its peak.

Octo in the previous life became famous in 93, but Kevin was much earlier than him. In the year Zixin was born, this hacker god who was 15 years older than him had already cracked the advanced military code of the United States, broke into He entered the Beimi air protection command system. It is said that he read through the nuclear warhead materials of the United States pointing at the former Soviet Union and the allied countries at that time, but afterwards he did not use this information to do anything that would provoke the Third World War, which caused different opinions in the world.

Octo, on the other hand, started to become famous in the world step by step after Kevin was arrested. There is no intersection between the two. Some people think that Octo is the second king of hackers. It is impossible to decide which one is stronger and which one is weaker. After all, if you want to compare two people from different eras, there are too many influencing factors to refer to, so there is no way to start.

It can be said that when Octo first spread its wings and tried to fly, Kevin was already a god.

Since I studied computers for the sake of Octo at the beginning of my career, this is the first time I have confronted a "historical figure" like Kevin—if I hadn't been reborn, I'm afraid I would never have had this opportunity. ah.

Human wisdom is endless, and no one can guarantee that they can be absolutely error-free, that is the domain of God only.With a little carelessness, hackers can use a small loophole to make your system bloom.

So now, at the beginning of Xingchu, he knows that Kevin is not as good as himself, who has far surpassed ten years of technology. What's more, he also consulted Kevin's information during his tenure in the previous life, and did some research on his style of work, but he didn't dare at all. Take it lightly, staring at the output data of the monitoring program, mentally estimating the actions the other party will take.

Suddenly, Kevin moved, and a dynamic port flashed in an instant, and the packed virus program slammed into the cracks of San Diego's system like a snake!

Qi Xingchu took a tight breath.

He watched as the poisonous snake-like virus slammed into a hole he had just repaired, stabbed with venom-filled fangs, rubbed against his body with an invincible momentum, but bit the iron plate with one bite.

--blocked.

The war room of the air force base was quiet, the indicator lights of the instruments were flickering steadily, and the security experts were nervously waiting for the arrival of the uncrowned king of the dark world, unaware that Santiago had already passed through the gate of hell under their noses. suffer.

On the other end of the network, a person in front of the computer let out a little gasp.Kevin Mitnick, nicknamed Hell Hacker, poked at the flaw in the system that had been repaired cleanly, and rubbed his chin in doubt.

Under normal circumstances, if it is not an emergency, hackers usually have pre-planned behaviors. Before the official invasion, they will always step on the ground first, find out the weak points of the attack target's defense, and figure out a cracking method before everything is ready. Only in this way can we more effectively ensure that a hit is sure to hit, and we are more responsible for our own safety.

Kevin's move this time is no exception. He has targeted this loophole long ago, and now he wants to take advantage of it—but it's flat?

A gust of wind blows, and a certain big hacker is very depressed.

Although the loopholes have been patched, Kevin cannot be easily bluffed away. To achieve such a great achievement, his temperament has long been beyond the reach of ordinary people. The big hacker collected his mind, turned a corner, and carried The powerful cannon rushed to another loophole it had found before. When it arrived at the port, it just set up the laser cannon and looked around. It turned out that there was still a flat expanse as far as the eyes could see.

Go, declare failure, stay, make it difficult to move an inch.Kevin was neither advancing nor retreating, and he was full of doubts. It was not long since he last detected San Diego, which means that these loopholes were patched in a short period of time—who? !He searched all over his memory, but he couldn't find any group or individual who had the strength to serve in the United States.But no matter what, the other party succeeded in provoking his competitive spirit.

Kevin's back, which was lazily leaning on the chair, finally straightened up, and his expression became serious. He compiled a piece of code on the spot and began to deeply explore the loopholes in the San Diego system.

At this moment, the firewall of Kevin's computer suddenly sounded a sharp alarm...

Standing in front of the monitor, Xingchu couldn't help frowning slightly as he watched the hacker's attack on Santiago withdraw in an instant.At first glance, the other party's move would be considered to be trying to please him, and he had given up the invasion, but after a closer look, he found something wrong: Kevin left too hastily, and even the traces of the invasion had not been completely eliminated. It's really not like a mistake that a seasoned hacker would make.

what on earth is it?He couldn't help looking around, everyone was nervously preparing in their respective positions, Kevin's arrival and departure were not even noticed, it didn't look like someone had taken any effective measures against the hacker to force him to retreat If you want to talk about yourself... Xingchu thinks that he is hiding very deeply. If Kevin has a keen sense of smell, he can only realize that the air force base has already known his actions, and then retreats bravely. It shouldn't be such a hasty appearance, on the contrary... It was as if something more terrifying was chasing him behind him.

If Xingchu wanted to intervene in places outside the Santiago network range, he could do it, but now that he was being watched, it was obviously not allowed for him to stretch his hand so long.In any case, Kevin has left, has history changed, or is there something else hidden?He shook his head. He really had no way of knowing. He could only stare and stare with a group of old men from the war department, and survived this Christmas that was not at all joyful.

In the eyes of the experts in the Operations Department, Kevin "let them dove", which puzzled them. Admiral Modric ordered everyone to stay in San Diego for three more days to make sure everything was safe. I have decided on the plan, and even the beginning of the trip will stay at the air force base for a few more days.

However, the next day, a piece of news spread on the Internet... No, it might be more appropriate to call it an explosion. After Xingchu, who was at the air force base, learned about it, he was stunned for a while on the spot, and it took a long time to hold him back with a wry smile. forehead.

"You're messing around...heh...it's too messy..."

The development of the matter was beyond people's expectations, especially the completely different development track from history, which made Qi Xingchu, a reborn person, feel almost absurd. The matter happened so abruptly and bizarrely, it suddenly lifted into the sky like fireworks, and It exploded in an instant, making people caught off guard.

This news has been confirmed and confirmed to be reliable, and its content is only a short sentence: —— On Christmas night, Kevin and Octo fought against two major hackers, which lasted all night, and finally ended with Octo winning.

Octo... beat Kevin?

This guy named Octo actually defeated the king of hackers, Kevin? !

Before this, the two had no intersection at all. When K tampered with the phone company's user list, O was still studying under the nine-year compulsory education system in Huaguo; Fate, two people who have nothing to do with each other, when did they have their enmity, contract, and fight?

Nobody knows.

In fact, Octo can be regarded as a well-known hacker in the circle. The release of the Linux system and the war with the three major IT giants are enough to prove his level, making him and Linus the leader of free softwareism, but To be honest, this is also different from Kevin, who is known as "the world's number one computer hacker". Black hats, while Octo's behavior tends to be white hats-although he is also classified as gray hats or even black hats by some people because of his attacks on IT companies.

Therefore, except for people in the computer field, O's popularity among ordinary people is far less than that of Kevin, the recognized number one hacker whose deeds were put on TV screens in his early years.

Just like when people mention the richest man in the world, they think of Bill Gates, so what about the second richest man in the world?Oh, probably Buffett... what about the third?Who the hell knows who the third one is!

In the eyes of ordinary people, Kevin's name symbolizes "hacker" - the world's number one hacker, Kevin; the king of hackers, Kevin; hacker, Kevin.However, all this changes today.The big hacker who has been demonized by people has been defeated, the myth collapsed, and a new myth was established at the same time——

Someone replaced him and walked into people's topics and sights, and this person was Octo.Since then, the number one hacker in the world, Octo; the king of hackers, Octo; hacker, Octo.

The two parties involved in the incident—let us turn our eyes back to that night, and we will find that behind the birth of a legend is often a bare peacock's butt.

Kevin: Who are you and why are you attacking me? !

Octo: It makes me angry to see you digging holes in the database in San Diego.

Kevin: It's none of your business. Besides, as a hacker, don't tell me that you haven't hacked a database!

Octo: Now, I have a question for you.

Kevin: Say.

Octo: If someone wanted to set fire to the library you've been going to, how would you react?

Kevin: If you dare to destroy my spiritual food, of course you beat me so badly that I don't even know my mother.

Octo: That's enough.

……

Kevin: I lost.

Octo: Huh... a narrow victory, the Internet is a place where talents come out in large numbers, it is unexpected that just random people can be so good.

Kevin: ...whatever!You do not know who I am? !

Octo: Huh? ...

Legend has it that this was a premeditated battle for many years. Octo was hunted down by the FBI after the attack on the IT company. They were all caught off guard, bringing a huge exclamation point to the entire network.

Mystery is the most powerful catalyst for worship.Compared with Kevin, who has been imprisoned twice and whose real name has been disclosed to the public, Octo is obviously more intriguing. No one knows whether this guy who uses the acronym of octopus as his name is male or female, round or flat, whether he will It won't really be an octopus that changed, just overnight, all kinds of speculations have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, true or false, and opinions vary.

"Become a god in one battle?" A voice sounded behind Qi Xingchu, it was Admiral Modric, and he read the news report in Xingchu's hand word by word: "Octo... I didn't expect him to be so powerful, it seems that the arrest warrant The series has to be increased by one, don’t you think so, Qi.”

Qi Xingchu habitually closed the file with a blank face, sat in front of the monitoring platform and looked at the continuously refreshed data, without saying a word.

Modric added: "Want to be free again? Here's your chance - let Octo go to jail for you, how about it?"

The Chinese youth turned his head slowly, stared at the general for a while, and suddenly smiled.

This smile on his gentle and handsome face should have made people feel like a spring breeze, but somehow Modric suddenly felt a chill on his back. He closed his eyes and opened them again, but the other party had already restrained his expression, as if The moment just now was just an illusion, he heard the man say: "General Modric, I almost forgot to say something to you, Merry Christmas."
