Cyber Heroes

As a hardware engineer with a professional background, Xiangshan actually had an inexplicable psychological advantage over hackers in the past. He feels that he is engaged in construction, while those hackers are engaged in destruction. They do not have a systematic and overall perspective and can only build a house on the foundation built by "people on their own side".

No, the people who build the houses are software engineers. Hackers just drill holes in the house.

But the snail shell can still be used as a dojo. Drill your own holes in the house, and if you drill them well, and those holes are in just the right place, the house will still be warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

When communicating with Hartman, Xiangshan can indeed occasionally feel the taste of "stones from other mountains".

If you start from a different angle, you can indeed see different things.

Xiang Shan is even more looking forward to meeting "Zhu Rong".

He and Hartmann didn't chat for long. Soon, people from the security department called him.

The research department will provide a "playbook". This script includes questions that can be asked later.

Xiangshan and the others will have to use the questions in this preset "script" when they communicate with hackers in the "risk" community. Even if you have temporary inspiration and want to ask new questions, you have to wait for review by multiple departments before you can ask them.

This is already an exceptional treatment.

I don’t know whether the UN officials feel that Xiang Shan’s achievements in cracking the “Orunmila Project” deserve this treatment, or whether they feel that Xiang Shan will not last long in this position, so they are extravagantly indulgent.

Xiang Shan thought there might be both.

In the early years, when Xiangshan's father and uncle were drinking and bragging, they would say things like "right is complete" and "right does not expire." He always thought it was bullshit from the previous era. Or maybe this is only discussed at a certain level.

After reaching the level of the United Nations and standing in this position, Xiang Shan felt, oh, it makes sense.

The two scholars were explaining their proposed plan point by point. Xiangshan rubbed his nose.

——Judging from the conversation just now, this Hartman is actually an exploitable factor. Thus……

The hazy plan in Xiangshan's heart became a little clearer.

Soon, the "Online Academic Exchange Meeting" was launched. The participating scholars included several Rama project scholars and several “risk” community hackers.

Of course, the account used is still Xiangshan’s “Ramanujan”.

The opening line is the worst kind of "I think this idea sucks. I have an idea, et cetera."

The point is to ignite the emotions of those hackers while giving a hint of the right direction.

Those hackers are all "charlatans". For the sake of a breath and a face, you can risk having your real name dug out to engage in a high-risk, low-return activity like "Hero Challenge".

When your emotions are up, why do you care about other things?

However, the direction provided by Xiangshan and the others is indeed "correct".

After all, "Sita" is a small part of the data derived from the "Orunmila Project", and it is a part that Ingrid thinks "maybe able to analyze according to linguistic research methods." This part of the binary code corresponds to something that should not be too basic.

But Xiangshan and his gang have the whole picture.

The code of the "Orunmila Project" is indeed relatively large, and it is not data that the human brain can directly process, but Xiangshan does have a "holistic understanding."

At least this speculation is "similar to that" among the many speculations of those hackers.

Xiangshan narrowed his eyes.

This was not a direct communication between him and those hackers. For him, every word he said was based on reading the script, and there was no sense of exhilaration like brainstorming. He only felt that he had a vague illusion of "inspiration collision", but it was not real.

Xiang Shan narrowed his eyes to hide his inner thoughts.

——The first step has been taken, the door has been opened...

At this time, he heard some arguments outside.

Xiangshan turned his head and saw that it was Hartman's side. Hartman seemed to want to come over, but was held back by the FBI monitor and another guard. There seemed to be a bit of a dispute.

Xiang Shan walked over and asked, "What's going on?"

The guard saw Xiang Shan and introduced him in a low voice. The work here is to use a projector to put the chat content of the hacker community on the screen, while the experts discuss it loudly.

Hartmann was curious, so he came over. Hartmann's responsibility was to analyze the virus and report at any time. As an outsider, he obviously did not have an independent office, so he was placed in that corner. It's quiet enough here anyway.

The guard was unsure whether Hartman was allowed to participate in this matter, so he wanted to stop him. The former FBI officer was responsible for ensuring that Hartman did not have "unnecessary contact" with other people and that Hartman "had no other movements." He was also not sure whether Hartman was deliberately attracting the attention of a certain guard so he could do something, so he also stood up.

Xiangshan pretended to be thoughtful for a moment and asked Hartman: "Is your work done now?"

Hartman nodded: "The analysis tool is still analyzing, and it will take a few hours to run through the data."

He did feel itchy in his heart when he heard what was said in the room.

Xiang Shan looked at the former FBI member: "He is now part of Hanuman's group. I can make the decision."

The former FBI member thought for a moment, then nodded silently.

Xiang Shan looked at Hartman: "Before you came, did anyone tell you the full story of Rama's plan?"

Hartman nodded: "I have read all the data of 'Sita'. But without an order, I cannot participate in the discussions of those hackers."

"Since you are also a hacker, why don't you come over and take a look?"

Xiangshan looked behind him in a consulting tone, but grabbed Hartman's shoulder with one hand.

The people over there deliberated for a while. Hartman was originally transferred to deal with hackers, so it was normal for him to be involved in contact with the "risk" community. It’s just that some people feel that this discussion was deliberately added by the research department and started from the research activities of the Rama Project. Hartman's participation is not necessarily legal.

Xiang Shan waited for a short while, then made an impatient expression and dragged Hartman into the small circle where the discussion was taking place.

Several staff members showed some dissatisfaction, but didn't say anything.

Xiangshan does have the right to decide. He is the biggest official here.

Hartmann seemed moved.

Of course, after a few hours, the discussion ended normally. There is no need for any "ending". After all, hackers just get together to play with technology.

The two scholars who followed Xiang Shan were in high spirits. They feel that their ideas have been opened up and they have gained a lot.

Xiangshan spent the rest of his time arranging research projects.

When it was time for dinner after get off work, Officer Xiao Hu appeared again and gave Xiang Shan a few words of caution, to the general effect of "beware of an FBI agent."

Xiang Shan laughed wildly in his heart. It seems that his series of behaviors are all explained by the reason of "scholar's crazy nature".

No one realizes his true purpose.

When work began the next day, Hartman was the first to deliver the results.

"Zhurong" does use a Trojan horse. He should have left another secret agent in the servers of those corporate research institutions. When academics download data needed for research from that server, their computers become infected. This Trojan can be spread through USB flash drives, mobile hard drives and Bluetooth, and under certain conditions, it will send data to certain IPs or mailboxes after connecting to the public network.

After being triggered once, the virus will be completely deleted by itself.

The good news is that Hartman found several samples of the virus that had not yet triggered.

The bad news is that "Zhurong" has not disclosed all the stolen information.

Another piece of data was also stolen.

And the most important thing is that this data is not part of the "Orunmila Project", but comes from the "Obatala Project".

It contains alien organic compounds.

"'Zhu Rong' probably didn't understand." Hartman said, holding a cigarette in his mouth: "But the worst case scenario is that she knows friends in related majors, and then finds friends to appraise the value of the paper..."

The former FBI member cleared his throat, as if to remind him not to say too much about things that were not his responsibility.

Hartman stopped immediately.

In the following discussion, Hartman still participated.

But there was a little hiccup along the way.

Cybersecurity detected signs of illegal access. Perhaps the performance of the new face "Ramanujan" was too prominent, so it attracted the attention of some hackers. Someone tried to follow the network cable.

But this is actually an impossible task. The consortium behind Project Rama physically controls the entrances and exits to the network.

But Xiangshan looked at Hartman: "Brother, can you in turn locate those who are trying to invade?"

Hartman thought seriously for a moment: "Actually, you can give it a try, but I can't guarantee anything."

Xiangshan invited those people to come and have a small meeting. Hartman couldn't touch other computers without permission. Without special permission, he could only use the equipment he brought with him.

Others were already used to this officer's style of thinking about things as they happened, but this matter still needed to be discussed.

Of course, the results are actually predictable.

The "Hanuman Group" is nominally responsible for the global manhunt. However, using social engineering methods to dig out "risk community" hackers around the world involves countless manpower and material resources. Although Xiang Shan is the nominal person in charge, he cannot command any of the police and military forces mobilized outside the park.

But within this group, his words are still very effective.

After concluding the discussion, Hartmann began the task of reverse tracing.

Xiang Shan patted Hartman on the shoulder: "Do a good job, brother. It's best to understand the structure of the online community."

Hartman smiled: "That one, I studied it last year."
