The richest man starts with a blind box

Chapter 1400 Can't even take out a patch

Not to mention the dire situation Microsoft is facing at this time, let us focus our target back to China.

Compared with the situation abroad, the domestic situation is probably considered good.

First of all, because of the unique wall in China, this extortion incident from abroad did not invade domestic companies in the first place.

Although the wall can't stop the real masters, let alone the domestic guys who also want to use this back door, it bought precious time for the domestic.

In particular, the domestic response speed is much higher than that of foreign countries. On the first day after the incident, the relevant domestic departments immediately notified all institutions by phone, asking them to disconnect the company's main server immediately. network, and then back up all the data as soon as possible to avoid the same desperate situation as abroad.

Although this led to the situation that various services could not be provided normally in the country for more than a day, each company has introduced corresponding countermeasures, so it did not cause too much negative impact.

And after the data is backed up, the service will be put on the shelves soon, and basically there is no need to worry about the data being encrypted anymore.

Of course, there are still some companies that were unfortunately caught. Their data was encrypted and then they were extorted a huge amount of money, but generally speaking, it was still within the acceptable range of the market and could not shake the whole situation.

And these blackmailed companies became the best examples of news media in the first place, reporting to readers across the country.

However, after discovering that blackmailing companies was fruitless, many people began to focus on ordinary people.Someone directly made the backdoor program into a virus, and then distributed it in batches. These viruses will automatically invade the user's computer, then encrypt and package the user's data, and then give an address for the other party to send money.

Because the virus executes everything automatically, the extortion efficiency is astonishingly high. By the time ordinary users find out, more than 12.3% of personal computers in the country have been encrypted with personal data by this ransomware virus. Countless people All the precious hard disk data accumulated since childhood disappeared.

Ever since, the anger within Huaxia surpassed the anger abroad in an instant.

Although the losses in foreign countries are actually more serious, and the economy will be greatly hit, but after all, the computers of most ordinary people have not been attacked by ransomware viruses.

Contrary to the situation in China, the computers of most enterprises cannot be kept, but the computers of ordinary people have suffered heavy losses. For a while, all the Internet is full of anger against Microsoft and the United States. Various voices will not be repeated here. In short, it is If Bill Gates knew Chinese, he might be directly pissed off.

And with the outbreak of the ransomware virus, Fantasia Computer, who originally thought that LJ was harmless and would not have any impact on himself, realized at this moment that he had fallen into a huge crisis, and Fantasia Computer was working overtime crazily .

On the one hand, all the employees are trying to back up their own and the company's data, while on the other hand, Yang Yuan is furious.

But these angers are not directed at the employees of their own company, but at the damn Microsoft.

"What the hell are those bastards from Microsoft doing? Why haven't they released the patch!" Yang Yuan in the office asked angrily at the computer screen.

On the other end of the screen is the person in charge of Fantasy Computer's headquarters in the United States, a standard white man.

"Sir, Microsoft has not admitted until now that this incident was caused by the back door in their system!" The white man said in a slightly reserved manner in the face of his boss's anger.

"Yes, how dare they admit it, it's a dead word!" Yang Yuan gritted his teeth.

Some people may find it strange that anyone with eyes and brains can see that the problem lies in the back door provided by Microsoft. Why does Microsoft refuse to admit it so stubbornly?

That's very simple, the key lies in the impact of this backdoor.

If this backdoor does not cause any major problems, and if the loss is still within [-] million units, then there is no need for Microsoft to admit it, just find a way to spend money to solve this problem.

But if the loss caused by this backdoor is between 10 million and [-] billion, then Microsoft will still admit it, and then apologize without pain, fix the problem quickly, and then find a way to lower the compensation, and the matter will pass up.

But when the losses caused by this backdoor reached the current level, Microsoft knew very well that it could not admit it anyway.

It’s not that this problem doesn’t exist if it doesn’t admit it, but that as long as it doesn’t admit it, it’s temporarily impossible to fix the problem on Microsoft legally, and then all legal means can’t be used against Microsoft. still be able to remain free.

And in this free time, Microsoft can do a lot of things and find ways to solve problems at the same time.

The best result, of course, is to transfer the problem, and use all means to drag the problem to another company or a small person within a certain company, and the matter will be settled like this.

If the result is moderate, then you can use this time to destroy the evidence with all your strength, and at the same time reach a rescue plan with the people behind you, and after the trial, you can try your best to delay the trial time.

As long as it takes 2 to 3 years, the huge anger will be almost wiped out by then, and Microsoft will have a great chance to survive.

In the worst case, a large amount of assets can be transferred during this time.Even if Microsoft is found guilty in the end, it needs to pay huge losses, and at the same time someone will go to jail.

But so what, as long as the money in the hands of the boss behind it is kept, then Microsoft will die if it dies, and the big boss will not have any losses.

On the contrary, if Microsoft now directly and publicly admits that the problem lies with itself, then there is no need for a legal trial, and some government agencies can directly introduce various measures to secure all the evidence and funds of Microsoft. The three strategies of upper, middle and lower are all useless.

Therefore, even if Microsoft smashes its mouth at this time, it will never admit that the problem lies with itself.

In fact, Yang Yuan never expected Microsoft to admit his mistakes from the beginning to the end. He just expected Microsoft to release a patch as soon as possible to fill in his back door. Only in this way will users be willing to continue buying computers that can only be installed with Windows systems. .

Otherwise, who would dare to continue to use such a system that may be locked by a ransomware virus at any time?
Especially for the procurement of public institutions, which can be called the lifeline of fantasy computers, more than 70% of the purchasers have already called to say that they want to suspend the purchase. The purchase contract cannot continue until the Windows system is confirmed to be safe to use, otherwise it will be There is no need to buy fancy computers anymore.

This is the most fatal problem for fantasy computers.

But the problem is that it's fine if Microsoft doesn't admit its own problems, but even the patch that blocked the backdoor in time has not been released to the entire network for a long time.

In Yang Yuan's view, this is a matter without any difficulty in operation and selection. He sneakily sent out this backdoor patch as a normal system daily patch, and seized the time to end the bad impact caused by this problem. Don't let The losses caused are increasing, isn't this a matter of course?

Why has it been almost a week, and why hasn't Microsoft handed over this backdoor patch?

If possible, Yang Yuan really wants to go to Microsoft to make up this patch by himself, but the problem is that this backdoor is directly opened on the most basic architecture of the Windows system, unless the fantasy computer is modified from the most basic place , otherwise the patch cannot be completed at all.

But if this is the case, it is almost equivalent to building a system from scratch. Fantasy computers do not have such capabilities and strengths. The only one in the world who can do this is Microsoft itself.

"By the way, it's not that Microsoft itself can't fill in this back door!" Suddenly, an extremely ominous premonition popped up in Yang Yuan's heart.

"FK!"

"FK!"

At the door of the CEO's office at Microsoft headquarters, everyone can hear the roar of Microsoft's current CEO Steve Ballmer.

Yang Yuan never thought that his guess was correct, Microsoft just couldn't come up with a patch for this backdoor.

"Satya Nadella, I will kill you, I want you to pay the price!" Suddenly, a man with bare head and glasses came out of the CEO's office in some embarrassment. That red palm print can tell how badly he was treated in the office.

But the amazing thing is that when this man passed by the office, none of his colleagues showed any sympathy for him. On the contrary, they were all angry. Some people even couldn't help but waved their fists at him. Della could only cover her head and leave the office as quickly as possible, leaving Microsoft at the same time.

So here comes the question, why is this guy Satya Nadella so unlucky, and has become the object of anger of everyone in Microsoft, even the CEO himself, can't help but shoot him in the office, or just slap him This kind of slap in the face.

This is of course because Satya Nadella really made a huge mistake, and this mistake is so huge that even if he has been designated by the board of directors to be the successor of the next CEO, the actual second-in-command of the entire Microsoft, in some rights It has even surpassed CEO Steve Ballmer, but it still cannot make up for and cover up his mistakes.

Because it is him, Microsoft can't even come up with a backdoor patch.
