hello, i'm back online for little while on my playstation 3. my computer is completely down since december. i've been BUSY alot on a site while i'm trying to fix my computer.

funny thing is, jerk of my friend decided to screw me around with my computer after i warned him to not screw around with my stuff. so it was mean joke on me, but it also backfired on him. his phones got screwed up by my computer's defenses. it resulted in massive loss of data for him. while my computer self-screwed itself by shutting down.

fortunately, no data was lost but the computer is still down. i'm lucky lol

aside that, how is everyone?

I thought you were gonna give us news of the next Avatar series.

i would have if it was real news. but.. i needed t let others know i'm not gone

How? Did he have his phone synched up somehow to your computer? Explain this defense mechanism because this is the first time I have heard it being used in the mainstream

he did, actually. he synced with my computer's network and tried to access my restricted private files. this action actually activated my computer's defenses to tap into his phone and ripped it apart from within digitally. that defense was one of my computer's defenses that protects computer from unauthorized access. you could say i had some sort of digital monster like digimon that screwed up his phone

so i get the joke now, the title of the post is korra returns.you dub'd yourself korra and this is kind of a return for you....

actually, Korra is also my nickname that others on this forum knows. it's being said everywhere by my friends on sites or forums i use/visit.
for example, i'm called Korra on IMVU often. so it stuck, i also accepted it as part of my many nicknames.

That's ... that's not how computer security works. Sounds more like you had a nasty virus that triggered and he got it too when he connected to your PC's network.

What phone did he have? What operating system do you have? Is this a public software or did you customize it and make it on your own?

his were samsung model, my own being HP model. it's public software, not many people knows how to protect their ow computer. i have several layers of defenses on my computer. so it's impossible to destroy the operating system. any device like phones without authorized access also makes them as an threat to the computer, they have command program that tells them to destroy those without authorized access.

What android was he using? Are you telling me right now that your antivirus, finds vulnerabilities in a system and it is able to respond back to to any phone device with an attack of it's own? It is also very possible to crash an operating system. They have just gotten better at protecting that. The OS has to run in kernel mode sometime.

that's what i'm trying to say. it was first time it actually happened.  his phone got wiped while my computer crashed itself
 also, please do not call me a liar. it's rude and offensive to me

I think the two of us live on different planets...... xD
Welcome back, anyway!^^

thanks! ~_^

How temporarily?

You have done this numerous times CS. HAHAHAHAHHAHA his phone got whiped? I am seriously out. You should direct the next watchdogs.

 

Technically it should be possible to use a virus as a defensive mechanism if it's properly coded to not attack your own system. But something like that wouldn't be a system you'd connect to a network, because the defensive worth would be exactly that the virus would jump to and wreck any device that's not protected against it and any device that's authorized to access a network is an inherent attack vector.

 

That aside, for a virus or any other alike mechanism to actually be useful as an offensive countermeasure, it would need to be both compatible with all the different systems that could connect with a PC aswell be able to exploit the innumerable access points. There's a reason that malware usually only targets very specific backdoors or security exploits, which is that it's not easy to find and exploit those defensive gaps, let alone find and exploit all the different systems, with its different versions and update the whole thing to keep on par with plugged loopholes and masks to avoid THEIR anti-viruses. All in all, I would consider something like this a physical impossibility, because you couldn't possibly keep up locating new attack vectors for all those different systems as fast as they would routinely plug them. This isn't PC security, this would be fullblown cyberwarfare.

 

It's not like you can just code the equivalent of a can full with maple syrup on top of a door that will fall onto unsuspecting burglars ...

No offence to the OP but I was expecting something else entirely when entering this thread and left disappointed. :I

[Cassandra Saturn]

if it sounds like tall tale to you, it doesn't matter what it sounds like to others, if you believe it or not.

the point of this thread is about what happened. so i'm talking about my experience that day in december.

if you don't like it, deal with it.

I visited for Korra news, now I get to learn about Computer security.
