Max happily grabbed the flash drive, and it went onto the table after the first one.
- Max, I'll tell you this. Service in security, and especially in information security, is like fighting an enemy with a blade that you yourself hold with your bare hands. I've been in this situation, too, and more than once.
The greatest value

Why today's most important thing is to protect data - the most valuable asset of any business.
In the spring of 2018, a wave of cyber attacks swept across argentina mobile database world, making headlines. The hackers' method was not very new, but it was very effective: a virus launched into corporate information systems and ordinary users' computers encrypted all files and made further work impossible. Cybercriminals sent ransom demands to victims - offers to buy a decryption tool. The size of this ransom was limited only by the imagination and greed of the leaders of the criminal group.
Encryptors
Encryptors have been known before. The epidemic of spring 2018 simply became the first case of mass targeted use of cyber weapons against corporations around the world. Then many companies were forced to pay ransom to extort their data, without which the work of many businesses would have become simply impossible. Some of those attacked limited themselves to cleaning their systems from malware - backup copies helped them restore the data.
- What about the case?
- We will resolve the matter and resolve it in the interests of the empire. As you can see, I have looked at the situation from both the imperial security and corporate IB side. From above and below.
- So what should I do next?
- You must remember that we do not work for specific people, companies or positions. I have seen that you are an honest and intelligent person, and therefore you, Max, will work for us. We will solve the problem with Bane, the director will be glad to have you back.
That's how the story ended. Well, I advise you to remember. A good security officer is always a dual-use weapon. On the one hand, he works for the good of the company, but on the other hand, he always knows too much!
Johann nodded towards the table
