Desperate Hacker

Chapter 318 Reversal of Life
Medallion Fund.

The most prestigious and mysterious fund company on Wall Street.

It is said that all fund operations are executed in full accordance with the program settings.

Decisive strategies are derived entirely from mathematical formulas.

In short, this is a mysterious and powerful super consortium that is not made public!
It is said that for such a fund, even if you want to send money to the other party's door, you have to see if you are qualified.

But now, Chen Qingfeng learned about this fund company from the Internet.

But he didn't expect that he would sneak in after following the clues.

To be honest, he didn't understand finance, but driven by curiosity, he still wanted to see how this company made money.

So, while Chen Qingfeng threatened Duke, he secretly laid out his own program.

After a while, Chen Qingfeng had a thorough investigation of the entire company's network situation.

The most intuitive impression is that the connection speed to the servers of financial trading institutions is extremely fast.

Chen Qingfeng observed it and found that the Internet speed seemed to be one millisecond faster than that of ordinary users.

Because I also tried it, although the network connection between myself and the New York exchange was originally delayed due to the Pacific Ocean Optical Cable.

However, this company’s network connection speed is too fast!
Apart from this, Chen Qingfeng did not discover any more secrets about this company.

But he was curious, would it cause any big trouble if the important data in the server was stolen?

In the end, Chen Qingfeng did not do this because he knew that finance is very complicated.

It is said that the husband of the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives is a stock market god. Whatever he buys, his stocks will go up, and whatever he sells, his stocks will fall.

The reason is also very simple, because other people's wives can always tell their husbands some news before the policy is released.

There is nothing complicated about this kind of thing!

Therefore, Chen Qingfeng does not believe that the Medallion Fund is really as accurate as he advertised.

What mathematical model?What are the various prediction algorithms?
To put it bluntly, maybe it’s just for outsiders to hear!

But since Duke touched his people, he had to give this kid some color.

Chen Qingfeng hesitated for a long time and did not do anything on the server. He just left a hidden folder of peaker in the root directory of the server!

Then the link was quietly disconnected!
……

A few hours later, the fund company's network security administrator quickly discovered the folder hidden in the root directory of the main server.

Iv he was surprised to find that the folder should not exist here!
This guy was lost in thought for several seconds.

Then he felt a chill on his back!

Their opponents are mocking them by doing so.

Because not everyone can access the root directory of the main server. If the other party can change and create a new folder here, it means that they have obtained the highest permissions!

Duke just sat in the office. He was on pins and needles, looking at his colleagues in the security department, who suddenly became busy.

Then the company's email system sent an email asking everyone to leave their computers.

Immediately afterwards, Duke was knocked open by the door in a daze.

The security guard then followed colleagues from the company's technical security department and asked them to leave the office area one by one.

……

Duke followed his colleagues downstairs like a zombie.

At this time, a colleague kindly called for coffee, and someone handed a cup to Duke.

Yet he knew what was going on.

"Hey! Don't be nervous. Maybe it's a system failure. Can we still have two days off?" "What happened?"

Duke pretended not to know, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip of coffee, and then asked his colleagues.

"I heard! It seems that the company's main server has been hacked?"

When Duke heard this, his nerves immediately became tense.

If being expelled from Anonymous only made him feel that his hobby had suffered a setback and that he had been betrayed by a small group.

So if he loses his job at Medallion Company, his life will be completely over.

He suddenly regretted it.

He should have lived a comfortable life in this life, but he just liked to pursue excitement.

And the way to pursue excitement is to go against the government.

So he joined the notorious hacker group Anonymous on the Internet.

Every time I release top-secret information, I watch the CIA, FBI, and people in the White House hurriedly wipe their butts.

He has a sense of being in control of the situation.

However, at this moment, he stood here with a cup of coffee, waiting for the security department's decision.

But there is a feeling that life is being judged.

Because this cup of coffee is most likely the last cup of coffee he will drink here.

Colleagues in the technical department have no other way. Generally speaking, hackers will hide their whereabouts, but they responded in such a short time. They also have some anti-detection methods. You can see how the hackers invaded this company. company's.

Sure enough, not long after, colleagues from the company's technical security department discovered that the email system had been hacked.

The other party exploited a vulnerability that had not been discovered by the technical department, and then penetrated into the fund company's internal email system.

This system is connected to both internal systems and external systems because it needs to send messages to external customers.

Originally, the technical department was very cautious about the email system.But the other party used a zero-day vulnerability that they didn't know about and couldn't find. In this way, even if their security protection was in place, there was nothing they could do.

You can't protect against a weakness you don't even know about.

The company's email security log was called up, and he started checking line by line to see if there were any suspicious access records.

at last……

"Mr. Duke! Please come to the office!"

Colleagues in the company were out of work for a whole day. Although it was claimed that the company's transactions were completely controlled by algorithms, the losses caused were still incalculable.

When the busy colleagues from the security technology department finally came down, they called out to Duke, and soon everyone stayed away from him like the plague.

At this moment, he felt as if he was disliked by the entire company.

He felt like a walking zombie and followed him upstairs. Then the two founders of the company and several executives were sitting in the same room and looking at him sternly. Then he pulled out his chair and sat down. Opposite these people.

Then the head of the personnel department handed a document to him.

Then Duke didn't know what these people said, and someone suddenly handed him a pen.

"Mr. Duke, since your behavior has caused serious losses to the company, we have decided to terminate all relations with you starting today. You have half an hour to pack up your personal belongings. If it is late, the security will help you. Now Sign this confidentiality agreement and you can leave here!"

"No, I guess I can explain?"

"You don't need to explain? Anonymous said that you have been using the company's servers to help them launder money... We do not intend to pursue legal action against you, but if you insist on making things bigger, don't blame us for being rude. Already?"

On this day, Duke's life was completely changed by a hacker!
