I'm curious how these things work behind the scenes because for the layman like myself it sounds like a bad movie.
Auction Server gets taken hostage. Hacker claims responsibility, supposedly doesn't want info from the hostage, just wants money to release the hostage. Server CEO has long-time IT experience, hires firm that specializes in internet hostage situations. "Never negotiate with terrorists!" customers say. They begin negotiating with the hackers. Server CEO and hostage firm negotiate a settlement to release the hostage. "It's okay," they say, "in most situations the hacker just wants a lump sum and they'll go away". The hacker releases the hostage. The Auction Server needs time to recuperate from the trauma but otherwise is intact and well-functioning. After a few days, life moves on. 3 Weeks Later Auction Server is missing. Who is to blame? Last edited by MCyganik; 01-18-2021 at 07:36 AM. |
