A Surreal Funny Flash Fiction On Hacking And Cyber Security - If Only It Was That SImple
There was a breach. Gigs of data was being downloaded from their top secret servers. It was streaming out. This was all top secret information. Real personal stuff. Government stuff. The employees scrambled around. Buttons were pressed. Impotant people were called. Then the wiz showed up.
"It is about time you showed up."
The wiz took a sip of his coffee. He did not like being up this early.
"How bad is it?"
"We have been hacked! On every level."
"Every level!?!" the wiz said.
"Yes... every level."
The wiz put his coffee down and walked over to the computer. He pressed the keys. All of them. But nothing happened.
"There is only one thing left to do."
"You mean?"
The wiz nodded. It was a long shot but if it worked. He opened the panel of the computer. Then he looked at the switch for Big Data Technology Security. It had been turned off. With his finger he turned it back on. The data stopped downloading. Everyone cheered. The wiz picked her coffee up and got up.
"Next time we won't be so lucky," he said before taking another sip of his coffee.
