Chapter 692 Grady Virus
Rush the number of automatic subscriptions, ask for automatic subscriptions... Since the first Internet virus was created, viruses on the Internet have emerged one after another. Just like the disease virus in reality, software viruses have attracted everyone's attention to the "health" (security) of computer data, and some anti-virus software companies have gradually Founded, they launched special security software to help customers protect their systems from viruses.
The struggle between virus writers and anti-virus software is like a replica of the struggle between viruses and therapeutic drugs in nature. You come and go, winning or losing are only temporary, and no party has ever had an absolute advantage.
War is the biggest driving force for technology.
In computers and the Internet, the war between viruses and anti-software is going on all the time, which has also led to the rapid improvement of related technologies, and even indirectly advanced the upgrading process of the operating system.
After two or three years of rapid development, computer viruses have developed from the initial boot area virus to file viruses, and then to complex worm viruses... and other stages.
Its infection mode and mode of transmission have made great progress compared with before, and of course, it is more complicated to write than before.
However, basically, the Internet can still operate normally. Most anti-virus software can detect and kill most of the virus programs. Even if new viruses appear, they can be researched and upgraded in a very short time to launch special killing programs.
However, nothing in the world is absolute. This time, a mysterious virus called "Grady" suddenly appeared on the Internet, which is the case.
"Grady" in English is Greedy, which means greed, because this virus seems to be a very delicious creature. No matter what the data is on the Internet, as long as it is infected by it, it will completely "eat" it. Make it a part of yourself.
Security experts named it "Grady" virus based on its characteristics.
Speaking of which, the "Grady" virus appears on the Internet. It has been at least a week, and it was not destructive at the beginning, but some security research institutions have noticed the shadow of this worm. And began to track it in a targeted way.
However, before security experts could develop any results, the Grady virus began to show its real "greed".
Due to its powerful replication features, it has caused serious data blockage in the network, consuming a large part of the bandwidth and resources.
Continuous news reports show that many software giants have also been recruited, including Microsoft, Apple, IBM and other well-known security companies such as antivirus software.
Security experts around the world are studying this emerging virus. It can be said that this virus has completely absorbed all the advantages of those viruses in the past. It has a variety of modes of transmission, high invisibility, and strong camouflage ability. It is not something that professionals can't find at all.
The biggest headache for security personnel is that it has a very high deformation ability. The previous traditional methods used to identify viruses, such as feature code recognition, fixed action recognition, etc., can no longer be directly used. Grady has a very strong camouflage ability and can disguise himself as very similar to ordinary programs.
"The virus is coming!"
"The greedy virus Grady swept the world!"
"Security experts say that the species of Grady virus are unprecedented."
......
The United States's New York Times, London's Times, France's Liberty, Germany's Mirror... and other mainstream newspapers have followed up on this.
Then the Wall Street Journal also released the news that the supervirus had attacked financial exchanges such as Wall Street securities and futures. As a result, computer data was almost completely destroyed, causing Wall Street to eventually have to choose to suspend the market.
There is internal news, the loss caused this time will be immeasurable, and even the transaction data in the last ten days may not be able to find a backup.
......
When this incident happened, Lin Hong was devoting himself to treating Ah Huang. When he learned the news, the Grady virus had been rampant all over the world, and even China was not spared. More companies' websites and servers could not operate properly at all.
It seems that the whole Internet suffered a nuclear bomb attack overnight, almost pushing the whole Internet to the brink of collapse.
Lin Hong realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately put down his hands and focused on the Internet.
What kind of virus is it? Is it so powerful?
Lin Hong couldn't help but be a little curious and excited at the same time.
Since the birth of his super-brain system, many things on the Internet seem to him to be purely repetitive work, losing their original challenge.
For example, network intrusion and cracking seemed to be very charming, but now when I look back, I suddenly feel boring.
It's like there's a building here. You sneak over, kick the door after door, and finally just to find an unlocked door - it's very boring.
Therefore, since Lin Hong had a super-brain system, he has rarely done such things as intrusion. Most of the time, if he wants to achieve certain goals, he will write some automated programs and let the program complete them.
He thinks that the fun of programming lies in creation and construction.
Realize the wonderful creativity of whimsical ideas through programming, and finally create a kind of "beautiful" thing, which is the happiest and the most fulfilling for him.
From nothing - the essence of hackers is also here.
Haks are different. They hardly create. They use existing technology and software to destroy and trample on for their own purposes.
From this perspective, Lin Hong believes that hackers should not only be limited to the Internet field, but also a spirit and concept, and a way of thinking.
Painters, composers, sculpture artists, writers... and other people can be called "hackers". They are all creating something "beautiful" from nothing. It is precisely because of them that human society has such colorful spiritual wealth, which animals and plants can't do at all.
Lin Hong is curious to know which awesome person has written such a powerful virus, and excitement is a kind of subconscious of "game-to meet opponents".
Master is lonely, and Lin Hong now has this sense of loneliness.
After quickly connecting to the network, Lin Hong quickly caught samples of the Grady virus that spread everywhere in the network.
However, he was not in a hurry to analyze it. Instead, he carefully read some of the information released by other security agencies and learned some of the characteristics of the Grady virus from the initial appearance to the present.
After synthesizing this information, Lin Hong couldn't help but have a very strange idea:
Does this Grady virus seem to be growing? RS
