After eating and drinking, Chen Yao got up and went to the front desk to pay.

The minimum consumption here is 500 euros. I ordered a lot of food and couldn’t finish it. I had to pack it up and let the front desk lady count it. How much is it?

Chen Yao took his cell phone and prepared to pay: "How much does it cost in total?"

However, the front desk did not respond to him at all.

At this time, the front desk lady was busy operating the computer keyboard, looking very nervous, and sweat was flowing on her forehead.

Chen Yao tapped the counter with his finger: "What happened?"

The front desk lady took out a tissue and wiped the sweat from her forehead: "It's over, the computer is poisoned!"

Looking towards her computer screen, all the icons on the screen turned into a black claw. After looking at her operations, all the applications cannot be opened.

"Is there any file missing?"

"I don't know." The front desk lady shook her head: "My hard drive was forced to have a password by the software, and it cannot be opened now."

Ransomware?

This is Chen Yao's first reaction. This virus is so famous that it has caused great damage to the world.

Chen Yao bypassed the front desk: "Let me see."

The front desk lady had no good idea. She nodded and let the seat open, and Chen Yao sat down.

This computer has four partitions in total. Chen Yao clicked on the D disk and opened it very slowly. All the file icons inside became magic claws, and you can click on an icon at will.

A prompt pops up immediately: Congratulations! Your file is protected by Magic Claws. Now, you can try entering a password to unlock it.

If you don’t know the password, please pay 1 bitcoin to the account to get the unlocked password. Thank you!”

really……

Chen Yao turned to look at the front desk lady: "Your computer has ransomware!"

The front desk lady looked nervous: "What should I do if I do this?"

Many important files are stored in the computer, and now all files are passworded by viruses.

This is a huge loss!

If you want to untie it, you have to pay Bitcoin. She doesn’t understand, what’s that?

“What is Bitcoin?”

Chen Yao simply responded: "A virtual currency encrypted by blockchain has a market price of about 1,000 euros."

In an instant, the front desk lady frowned.

"You ask your boss and see if he is willing to pay the fee?"

"I am the owner of this store." The front desk lady said: "But I will never pay this fee. The people who release the poison are all bastards, and I will never indulge them."

This is equivalent to being robbed. If you want to get your own things, you have to pay for it. This time it is 1,000 euros, and next time it is 1,000 euros.

If I really paid to the person who released the poison, the anger in my heart would not be able to calm down.

She asked quickly: "Sir, is there any other way to unlock all the files, the pictures, videos, and the ledgers are so important."

If he could untie, she would rather pay him ten thousand euros than pay him the abominable poisoners.

Chen Yao said: "Unless the poison is found, only he can have a way to solve it."

People who can create ransomware have certainly not simple technology. The password setting must be an extremely complex algorithm, and the password of each file may be different.

If you open a supercomputer and calculate the machine until it crashes, you may not be able to calculate the password.

"Sir, I think you are a professional. Can you find him?" The store owner developed an inexplicable sense of trust in him.

Cai Feifei smiled. He was more than just a professional, and there was no problem in his impression that it could not solve.

Chen Yao stood up and said, "You can wait for the news."

I don’t want to say that there are many, and I feel that the virus incident will be very serious this time. It may be an opportunity for Legend Track Company.

Hotel, room.

"Brother, you are finally back. I'm almost hungry and fucked!"

Seeing him return, Lin Yu stood up and walked towards him, took the big bag in his hand and placed it on the table.

I had clearly agreed to go out to the restaurant to discuss things and pack it back after eating, but I waited for him for nearly two hours but didn't see him back.

"Because of the virus, I came back a little late."

"Virus? What kind of virus?" Lin Yuhan put a piece of cake in his mouth and looked at him.

Chen Yao didn't know what to say, so he quickly walked into his room, turned on the computer, and logged into his Twitter account online.

The ransomware is indeed spreading across Europe!

As of this morning's statistics, ransomware has infected more than 10 million computers.

Not only ordinary users are affected, but many companies' servers and websites are also waving with viruses and cannot be accessed.

Judging from this situation, the spread is expanding, and at this rate, it is likely to spread to the world.

This virus has a characteristic: it spreads quickly and it spreads rapidly in the online world shortly after it appeared.

Moreover, the consequences are particularly serious. The personal computer and server data are forcibly encrypted and cannot be opened unless the drug releases are given money.

Ransomware rushed to the top five Twitter accounts, and there were many comments.

:Oh my God, this virus is so hateful. Two of my three computers were poisoned. Now this computer doesn’t dare to click on other websites.”

"Who is it? Who released the virus? Catch it out and I want to kill him!"

"This may be a conspiracy from the United States, don't ask me why I know."

"My company's servers were all caught, and they were both affected by the backup server. Oh, it's over, I don't know what to do now."

"It's so scary! My device is not connected to me for the time being, and I'm waiting for the virus to pass and come out." Feifen walked in and said, "If this virus occurs in the real world, how scary would it be?"

Internet viruses are very similar to the real virus logic, and the damage to the Internet is very huge.

The difference is that viruses in reality are likely to be produced by nature, while Internet viruses are definitely man-made.

Moreover, with the development of brain-computer technology, the human brain is connected to the machine, and future network viruses are likely to attack humans like real viruses.

Chen Yao refreshed the web page. It seems that some companies have found a way to kill the virus, but what's the use of this? Destroy the virus, those files are still encrypted, and they still don't know how to do it.

Moreover, this virus will mutate!

Once the variant is mutated, the previous antivirus methods will become invalid.

Chen Yao sent an email to Sun Zhennan, asking him and his team to study and see if they could find anti-virus solutions. The key is to catch the drug releaser.

During the day, there is nothing else to communicate with the team.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Chen Yao opened Twitter and the ransomware incident directly became the top spot in the hot search.

Ransomware, unprecedented!

More than 50 million infected devices are spreading around the world...
Chapter completed!
