Three days flew by.
Army ant headquarters.
Zhao Min watched various news leisurely.
Since the computer network security team successfully developed software to eliminate 'Satan', her mood has become better and better day by day.
Now she is completely like an outsider, watching the overt and covert fighting between all parties.
The 'Satan' virus incident has escalated to a game between various countries. The gods are fighting, but mortals like them dare not get close to avoid causing disaster.
Zhao Min didn't know what kind of fight was going on in private. During this period, Army Ant Company was very low-key and did not accept any interviews from the outside world.
The island country is in a terrible situation now, and the island country government is trying its best to appease the people.
After the truth came out, the U.S. sanctions on Army Ant Company became embarrassing. Under pressure from demonstrations by citizens in earthquake-prone areas, the U.S. government lifted sanctions against Army Ant, but privately still restricted Army Ant from entering the U.S. market.
At the same time, people were sent to contact the army ants again, hoping to re-fulfill the order for seismometers.
On the Internet, the abuse and attacks on Army Ant Company have also disappeared, leaving only sporadic ones, which can be ignored.
More than half a month has passed since the virus spread, and the biggest profit has been made by the Army Ant Company.
The market share of Termite Intelligent Operating System has grown almost exponentially in the past half month, accounting for half of the computer operating systems.
Because the Termite system is currently unable to be cracked and pirated, Microsoft still dominates the market share at the most basic level.
However, its ultra-high security has spread the name of the termite system in corporate offices and high-end markets around the world, and its market share has also dominated.
Even in the United States, which restricts army ant companies from entering the market, many companies also purchase and install termite operating systems privately. They don't want to suffer again when the next crisis occurs.
The sales of Army Ant's office software, office laptops and computers are also staggering.
It can be said that Army Ant Company has made a lot of money during this crisis, and the initial attacks on Army Ant Company on the Internet had little impact.
After the security team developed the killing program, Zhao Min has not been in a hurry to release it because she needs the truth. She will not release the program easily until the outside world gives the truth to the marching ants.
Now that the truth has come out, it is time to resolve this network security crisis. If we delay it any longer, we will have too much appetite and it will be counterproductive.
"It's time to update the company's anti-virus software and announce to the outside world that we have successfully developed software to remove the 'Satan' virus." Zhao Min picked up the phone and gave the order.
…
Ji Baihe looked at the computer in front of him in distress, which was still a human face composed of cold numbers. He is one of the millions of miserable people infected with the 'Satan' virus, but has nowhere to complain.
It has been more than half a month since the Satanic virus was raging. He paid attention to the latest news every day, but there was still no effective way. The only way is to format the computer hard drive and reinstall the system.
But this is his work computer.
There are still some data in the computer that have not been backed up, the most important of which are the design drawings that he has worked hard to draw for three months.
After being infected with the virus, he wanted to draw more drawings, but there was not enough time. If the computer's 'Satan' virus cannot be removed, he is in trouble.
The drawing is due in a week. If it cannot be completed, the breach of contract will cause losses to the company, and whether he can keep his job is still a question. Now the father is ill and the children have to study. He has become the breadwinner of the family. If he loses his job, it will be a disaster for his family.
Ding dong!
When Ji Baihe was distressed, the crazy message prompts on WeChat brought him back to his senses. As soon as I opened it, I saw a message from my colleague in the group.
Army Ant Company successfully developed a program to eliminate the 'Satan' virus!
Seeing this news, Ji Baihe's pupils shrank, his troubled face became ecstatic, and he almost jumped up: "March Ant, I love you to death."
Ji Baihe vowed that if the virus on his computer was successfully eliminated this time, he would immediately buy two laptops from the Army Ant Company. This was a timely blessing.
After reading the announcement from Army Ant Company, Ji Baihe used another laptop with the Termite system installed, logged into the official website of Army Ant Company, and followed the instructions in the announcement to download the latest anti-virus software to a blank USB flash drive.
After the download was completed, Ji Baihe took the U disk with trembling hands and inserted it into the virus-infected computer. He began to follow the instructions to read the software in the U disk.
Ten minutes later, Ji Baihe cried with joy when he saw the digital Facebook disappearing from the computer desktop, with all files intact.
The information and design drawings were saved, and so were the jobs.
This scene happens in every corner of the world.
The news that the Army Ant Company has successfully developed a cleaning program is like great news, and it quickly spreads throughout the depressed Internet world.
"Army ants are awesome!"
"This anti-virus software is free for three days, which is the conscience of Army Ant Company. Anyone who has ever sprayed Army Ant, you all should die."
"It seems we owe the army ants an apology."
"Army ants don't need an apology from you trolls. You trolled when you didn't know the truth. Now I want to apologize. Army ants don't need your disgusting apology."
"Thank you to Army Ant for saving me millions worth of information. I swear I will be a loyal fan of Army Ant in the future."
The Army Ant Company announced the method of detecting and killing the 'Satan Virus', and once again its face was leaked on a global scale.
The army ants who were wrongly accused stood up at the most critical moment.
After getting the news, many people downloaded a copy of Army Ant's anti-virus software, just in case, regardless of whether their computers were infected with viruses or not.
Army Ant updated the company's anti-virus software to bring an end to the Internet security crisis.
But the private 'sequelae' is not over yet, due to the terrifying destructive power of the 'intelligent virus'. The five countries on the Security Council have included Internet security and artificial intelligence in the scope of security management, and are discussing and formulating rules for the future development of artificial intelligence.
…
In Sanya, South China Sea, Chen Mo looked at Li Chengzhi in surprise. Now that he was still on his honeymoon, he didn't expect that Li Chengzhi would come here to find him.
"Do you want the code for the termite system's smart firewall and the code for the anti-virus software?"
"Yes. There is some bad news. Now the United States and Russia are on one side, the European group united by Britain, Germany and France, and the island country on the other. We are excluded from the negotiations. The four parties compromised and got the 'Satan' code. We don't." Li Chengzhi looked very cautious and a little unhappy.
Chen Mo nodded, this was not surprising.
This kind of joint effort to check and balance them is no longer a secret. Those people will definitely not miss any opportunity to restrict them.
"You know what 'Satan' is, right?"
"Artificial intelligence." Chen Mo answered without hesitation.
"You do know."
Li Chengzhi was not surprised. Many people know that 'Satan' is artificial intelligence, but there is no such news on the Internet. This is the result of deliberate guidance by various countries.
"There is a trouble now. As can be seen from the disaster in this island country, if 'Satan' is used as a weapon, it is also a big trouble, just like the Internet 'big firecracker'.
The other four parties all have this weapon, but we don’t. But you have a shield in your hand, which is the intelligent firewall technology and killing software of the termite system. We are prepared to use these two technologies for in-depth development research as defensive weapons in possible future cyber wars. "
Li Chengzhi told Chen Mo the above idea.
The four parties that have obtained the source code of Amaterasu have begun to mobilize personnel to invest in development.
Mastering this technology means taking the initiative in future struggles. Once there is a war and conflict between the two sides, cyber war will take the lead and paralyze the opponent's domestic network, which will be the current disaster for the island country.
In order to get defensive weapons, Li Chengzhi had to come to Chen Mo.
Developed by their researchers, they can definitely develop it, but it will take a lot of manpower and time. In the current research process, time is of the essence.
"This can be regarded as a disguised form of defending the home and country. Naturally, I will not refuse." Chen Mo nodded.
This is his motherland. If he has the ability, he will definitely help. So many technologies have cooperated, and he doesn't care about the technology of smart firewalls and anti-virus software.
No one knows the horror of artificial intelligence better than him.
This time the 'Satan virus' is the 'nucleus' of the Internet age. When it is not controlled, it is as destructive as an 'atomic bomb' and can quickly inflict heavy costs on the opponent; but when it is controlled, it is like 'nuclear power', It can bring leapfrog development to human society.
This is the duality of artificial intelligence, and Mo Nu has this ability.
This is why he felt sorry for not being able to destroy the 'Amaterasu' source code.
After receiving Chen Mo's affirmative answer, Li Chengzhi smiled.
"With defensive measures, the situation is very passive. What about checks and balances?" Chen Mo asked.
"Not yet, this will definitely need to be developed."
"Actually, 'Satan' is an out-of-control artificial intelligence. I don't know Xia Wa's progress, but I feel that Xia Wa's intelligence is no lower than that of 'Satan'. Once Xia Wa loses control of the Internet, it will have the same effect. If it does not lose control, it will Relatively mature artificial intelligence will be better than 'Satan'. 'Satan' inherits the transmissibility of the 'Joker Virus'. If a check and balance weapon is needed, the Joker Virus can be used as the basis for research."
"Do you have the source code of the clown virus?" Li Chengzhi asked curiously.
"Have you forgotten the Jiangnan virus accident? That was the predecessor of the 'Joker virus'. The girl who caused the accident is now an engineer in our company. The source code of the Jiangnan virus contains an intelligent program. The spread of the clown virus Sex comes from that intelligent program."
Chen Mo naturally did not dare to say that he had the clown virus, otherwise he would not be able to explain how these viruses came from.
If people think he is related to the Joker Organization, then he will be in big trouble.
"That's it." Li Chengzhi nodded in thanks.
With a research and development direction, they can definitely save a lot of development time. At this time, time is of the essence.
"You can go to Zhao Min tomorrow for the code for the smart firewall and anti-virus software, and she will give it to you."
"Okay, then I won't disturb your honeymoon."
Li Chengzhi stood up from his position with a look of joy on his face. He had gained a lot this time, and he did not have to worry about being unable to cope with future attacks by 'smart viruses' on the domestic Internet.
"Before coming, the chief asked me to give you a belated blessing, happy wedding."
"Thanks."
