Chapter 17: Antivirus Software

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Virus invasion?”

Ralph was a little surprised.

Then, he entered the class group.

As expected, many people were discussing this virus invasion incident.

It could be said that this virus invasion incident spread all over the world.

Countless countries, schools, and companies were affected. Every minute and every second was a heavy loss.

However, Ralph’s computer was not hacked. In fact, even if it was hacked, it was not a big deal. It would not cause any damage.

However, Ralph’s university suffered. The system was hacked by a ransomware virus, and the entire system was disabled.

Unless they really paid for the ransomware, was that possible?

If the university was ransomed by virus software, would the university’s reputation not be completely tarnished?

There were countless research materials and experimental materials within the university system.

If the system was disabled, many courses could not progress, and the experiments could not begin.

In particular, the university was working with many companies, and many projects were being carried out in a hurry.

If the system was disabled, the losses could be imagined.

The key problem was that many teachers and expert professors at Lorraine University, where Ralph was from, who were proficient in computing data programs, worked together to try to crack the virus, but failed to restore the system.

Powerless!

Many large corporations and even international corporations were powerless.

How could the teachers of a mere university solve the problem easily?

Now, Lorraine University had issued a notice.

If students who were proficient in computer programs could solve the university’s problems, they would be rewarded with 500,000 USD.

For many students, this was a huge sum of money!

And the students in Ralph’s class were discussing this matter in the class group. They all wanted to get the 500,000 USD in cash.

However-

They were not computer majors. They did not know anything about so-called programs, coding, data, software, and so on.

Of course, it was not that they could not learn computer programming if they were not computer majors.

Many students who were interested in this field studied in private. Their standards were very high. Some students even learned hacking techniques in private in college. Some student’s standards were even better than their teacher’s when it came to hacking.

Ten o’clock in the evening.

Ralph, Alice, and Amy were also talking about it.

“Ralph, you know how to develop software systems. You’re very good at it. You might be able to help the school. Why don’t we go and have a look?”

Alice suggested.

Ralph thought for a while and said, “Sure!”

In fact, he had another idea.

This was an opportunity for him to transform his company. He could use this opportunity to create an anti-virus software, which could easily kill Wannacry’s ransomware, and then use this new skill to make a name for himself.

The anti-virus software was free, but with a reputation, it could import traffic, and the advertising revenue alone was considerable.

And this laid the foundation for future software companies to take shape!

“Go to Lorraine University and use Lorraine University to make a name for me!”

Ralph decided.

But before that, he had to figure out what this virus software was all about.

Late at night.

Ralph digitized into the network and easily hacked into a computer in Lorraine that had been invaded by the virus. He used the company’s computer to come into contact with this virus software.

“This is the virus software!”

Ralph looked at a huge purple ball of light in the data world of the computer network.

This purple ball of light connected to the entire computer system. Purple threads controlled everything in the system. If the purple ball of light was not removed, the system would not be able to operate.

“Calculation!”

“Analysis!”

“Crack!”

Ralph’s body data started to run at high speed, trying to crack the virus software in front of him.

Countless data appeared in front of his eyes, calculating the way the virus invaded, how to break through the network system, stability, vulnerabilities, and so on.

About ten minutes later.

Ralph laughed!

This virus software seemed very powerful, but in fact, there were many vulnerabilities. It was just that the person who created the virus software mastered a relatively high level of technology, but his own level should not be able to do it.

Of course, perhaps it was not just one person, but an organization.

In short, Ralph cracked this anti-virus software.

So-

Ralph wrote an anti-virus software overnight. Not only could it kill WannaCry ransomware, but it could also kill ordinary viruses. It covered a wide range of things, and was definitely much better than the anti-virus software on the market.

Ralph also named it central anti-virus software!

The next day.

Ralph, Alice, and Amy went to the main computer room of Lorraine University.

At this time, many students and teachers and experts had gathered here.

What was more surprising was that the big streamer Mary also came here.

“It’s the big streamer, Mary! It’s said that she graduated from our school.”

“She has tens of millions of fans now, and is comparable to a big star streamer!”

Amy was thrilled. She was a total fan.

Ralph was not interested in the so-called big streamer, just a glance, then no longer pay attention to, but went to the main computer room.

“Teacher, I am proficient in computer programming and virus software technology, I wonder if you can go in to help?”

Ralph stood in front of a teacher and said seriously.
