【135】Resolve ransomware

In order to solve the problem of the principal's computer being invaded by ransomware, Lu Se took the second class in the morning and walked side by side with Bao Xing on the way to the principal's office.

When passing by a famous painting of famous quotes on the corridor, the bearded Marx said to everyone with a very philosophical look: "A mankind must learn to walk, and he must learn to fall, and only after falling can he learn to walk."

Corresponding to the calm Uncle Marx, Teacher Nangong, who was hurriedly leading the way, was wrapped in an A-line skirt with his lower body tightly. Bao Xing stared at the head teacher very obscenely for a long time before saying to Lu Se:

"You have hacking skills, but I don't have one. Why do you have to bring me with you to help the principal repair the computer?"

Lu Se took care of the tie around his neck and smiled and said, "You are so dark, are you sure you are not a 'black' customer? In short, since I have appointed you as an assistant in front of the head teacher, you should follow me honestly. Even if it is not useful, you can still be familiar with Principal He!"

Bao Xing looked bitter and said, "Do I still have a good face in Principal He? As the principal, she doesn't call me real name Bao Heizi!"

After turning a corner, the famous quotes on the wall were replaced by Comrade Lei Feng's "Serve the People". Bao Xing lowered his voice and asked:

"Lu Se, does this Bitcoin virus outbreak have anything to do with your Chaos Club? I remember you have also speculated on Bitcoin before?"

Lu Se snorted disdainfully, "The correct way to call it worm ransomware, not Bitcoin virus. Bitcoin is just a virtual currency, and it was used by the virus emitting person in this incident."

After pausing, he said: "In this virus outbreak, 16 hospitals were attacked in the UK alone, all of the intranet computers were locked. Hackers threatened to delete all medical information if they did not pay 00 bitcoins - equivalent to 4 million yuan. I have said before that Odin does not allow club members to attack public medical systems and humanitarian institutions. This behavior is also despicable in the high-end hacker community. Worm ransomware has nothing to do with us. At most, some people get news and avoid risks."

While speaking, several people walked into the principal's office on the third floor. The overall layout here easily reminded people of the presidential office of the White House. On the grand circular table were there were custom fish tanks with strange shapes, and a few red tropical fish swam around it. Next to the fish tank was a poisoned integrated computer.

"Is it called Lu Se, right? I heard that you have been studying programming at the Antarctic Science and Technology Research Station for a long time, so it is possible to recover my data?" Principal He Qimei sat behind his desk, holding his gold-rimmed glasses half-believing.

When he was speaking, he looked at Lu Se first, then scanned Bao Xing who was standing next to Lu Se. Obviously, he was a little confused about Bao Xing following him, but it was not so important that he needed to ask a question.

"Try it, it's not a lot of money!" Teacher Nangong rushed to answer, "If you ask for help from outsiders, it will make our Qingzi Academy's network security work not in place. If the students we train can solve the problem, wouldn't it just highlight the advanced nature of the country's advanced colleges and universities!"

After Principal He Qimei returned, he encouraged teachers to compete with each other and compete for class results. Class 2 (1) led by Nangong Meng was not in the overall score in the last monthly exam, so he was eager to use other methods to save face.

"Even if the school needs to solve the problem internally, there is no need to find a student who is still stinky!"

The vice principal He Xifan, who is always wearing an Armani white suit, stood on the west side of the room, his tone was extremely sour.

When Principal He Qimei asked for leave, this was where He Xifan had originally occupied Que's office. Now he could only go to the principal's office in the junior high school building, and he had to be called over to ask questions from time to time.

"Our Lin Group has a dedicated network security engineer. If you follow my line, you can solve your problem with Principal He!"

Before Lu Se came, He Xifan kept boasting about the capabilities of the Lin Group to He Qimei, but He Qimei was unmoved.

"It's good that Lin's Group is willing to come forward to help, but the network security engineer of Lin's Group is not considered an "insider" of Qingzi Academy in any case, right? Or is Vice President He already determined that Qingzi Academy is destined to be acquired by Lin's Group?"

He Xifan was embarrassed when asked, so he had to vent his anger on Lu Se.

"You! Don't think that learning programming in a little while can eliminate the ransomware that stumps many professionals! The data in Principal He's computer is very important. If you fail to recover and break it, can you afford to pay the responsibility!"

Lu Se burst into laughter and pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his index finger, saying neither humble nor arrogantly:

"Are I just a small fuss? You know best if you have been to the Lin family villa... In addition to the first 8th, has the Lin Group found other hackers willing to act as hawks?"

He Xifan was hit by Lu Se and his face became more gloomy. In front of the vice principal in a bad mood, Teacher Nangong and Bao Xing were both silent and did not dare to speak casually.

Lu Se walked over He Xifan indifferently and walked to the desk, sat in the guest seat opposite He Qimei through the table, and asked with a polite request to the older women: "Can I let me use the keyboard?"

He Qimei nodded and acquiesced. Next, Lu Se took the wireless keyboard, twisted the monitor 45 degrees, and entered a string of URLs through the browser.

He Xifan mocked, "Do you want to use the domain name switch for worm virus? The domain name switch has expired! Are you not very informative because you are prohibited from carrying smart phones?"

Lu Se ignored He Xifan, but directly entered a strange website with a simple structure and pure black background. Before everyone understood the content, Lu Se switched the website language to Spanish to ensure that the secrets of Chaos Club are not leaked.

After passing one authentication window after another, one exclusive parameter after another was entered. The website generated a self-running program for download. After Lu Se successfully downloaded it, it immediately ran it. A file recovery progress bar appeared in the center of the screen. The explanation text of the progress bar was in English.

He Qimei didn't expect Lu Se to have the ability to save files, and she didn't expect the speed to be so fast. She said with surprise: "That's all? No tool is useful. You can do it just by a computer that has been poisoned?"

Bao Xing couldn't help but brag for Lu Se: "Principal, you don't know, what is this? A hacker like Lu Se can hack the US Department of Defense by giving him a telephone line!"

In normal times, He Qimei would definitely let Bao Xing go out for punishment, but in this situation, she decided to give Lu Se some face.

"Can all the information be saved?" He Qimei asked. "I heard that some antivirus manufacturers have also launched file recovery services, but only some of them can be restored."

With five fingers on the keyboard with his left hand on his face, Lu Se showed the kind of calmness that only a talented person could have.

"No problem, this is a secondary mutant worm ransomware. The degree of the mutant is still within my processing ability--in fact, the worm virus does not really encrypt the original file, but first deletes the original file and then generates an encrypted copy. The solution of the anti-virus manufacturer is to restore the deleted original file, and my solution is to use both recovery and decryption, so the recovery level is higher."

Teacher Nangong, who had been standing at the entrance of the principal's office, seemed to be ready to escape at any time, finally let down his heart and said excitedly:

"Principal, right? Lu Se can indeed solve it! Although our second-year high school (1) class has the lowest monthly exam results, the students are of high quality!"

He Qi whitened Nangong Meng and said, "This is one and one, are you teaching Lu Se's hacking ability?"

Teacher Nangong was retorted head-on and stopped talking awkwardly, but He Xifan felt that he could no longer remain silent.

"Wait, principal, don't remember Lu Se's credit for Lu Se. Lu Se's decryption of documents is so efficient, it is impossible for him to not prepare in advance. I think he is the person who spreads ransomware in the school! Because he is the culprit, he can solve it easily!"

Although He Xifan is a sarcastic person, it does make some sense for Principal He Qimei, who does not understand Lu Se's ability.

Principal He Qimei frowned slightly and said, "Lu Se, I tend to believe you. I am very happy that there are students in my school who are capable, but the vice principal's accusations do not seem to be groundless. Can you clear your suspicion?" (To be continued)
