“What’s wrong with the company?”
Lin Chuan furrowed his brows, walking out of the room with confusion.
The Little Landlady’s face appeared somewhat anxious as she handed her phone to Lin Chuan: “This is a call from Li Qing.”
During this period,
Lin Chuan had been busy with weapon production at Anling Toy Factory, and as a result, the majority of the matters at the company had been handled by the Little Landlady.
Li Qing was also reporting directly to the Little Landlady.
Lin Chuan took the phone: “Li Qing, what’s the matter with the company?”
“Chairman!”
On the phone, Li Qing’s voice came through, sounding a bit rushed, “About two minutes ago, an overseas IP launched a large-scale attack on our company and our major partners!”
“What’s the exact nature of the attack?”
Lin Chuan spoke while heading for the door.
The Little Landlady immediately understood and grabbed Lin Chuan’s suit jacket, following closely behind him.
“DDoS denial of service attacks, Trojan viruses, malicious software, they have it all,” Li Qing reported truthfully.
“What about our firewall?”
Lin Chuan walked out of the house quickly and took the elevator down to the underground garage.
On the phone,
Li Qing immediately answered: “Our firewall is still effective, but the scale of the assault is substantial, and it’s tough for our technicians to block everything. Now, our biggest fear is that they’ll bypass the firewall and directly steal our partners’ data.”
“Okay, I understand.”
Lin Chuan nodded, “You get the emergency plan started, I’ll be at the company shortly.”
An overseas IP!
It’s very likely AW!
Lin Chuan’s mind buzzed as Angelina had just reminded him, and AW had already taken action; their speed was too fast!
No wonder they were a major organization in the hacker community!
There was truth to the saying ‘there’s strength in numbers’, and while Lin Chuan had world-class, top-notch technical skills, he couldn’t cope with their overwhelming numbers on his own.
They’d chosen the same moment to launch an attack on the company and its partners—a surprise that was hard to defend against.
With such a large scale, ordinary technicians found it hard to cope.
But in cyber warfare, especially when it came to grudges between hackers, there were seldom any ‘gentleman’s fights’, where a formal challenge was issued with an agreed time, method of battle, and witnesses.
If there were, then that would be a competition!
Hackers often appeared masked and cloaked, never showing their faces, as they were more focused on efficiency and took direct action without empty talk.
The night was quiet and deep.
The streets were empty save for the occasional car speeding by under the dim streetlights, disappearing into the night.
