Title: Will this make me a target?
Post by: BB Grim on March 29, 2013, 12:20:00 PM
I just saw an Encryptor file sitting there while doing a very low-level hack. I thought to myself, "Self, you don't have one of those, and it says right there you can download it." So I did.
Now I am wondering if that means I will now be a target of retaliation. Or, is the little v1.2 Encryptor just too tiny to worry about? If I am going to be a target, what is my best defense, and what level should it be at my worthless station in the grand scheme of ultra-junior hackers to afford some actual defense?
Does it make sense to hide a higher level defensive software on my own server to keep prying eyes from knowing what they are up against when they enter my own private Matrix (don't laugh...one day I will slide from Neuromancer  :shuriken: to Matrix  :bodyguard:...it can happen...really!)

my best advice is:
Quote
encrypt their firewall bypass and password break so they cant get to you

also, i used this strategy to keep a guy who was trying to trash my second server but i went afk for too long and he got me but it is
Quote
keep a password change running so if he breaks through you can lock him back out
this worked for the guy who malwared my server and it worked until i went afk for too long, so now i got to do a HDD format on that server too   :2:  :crybaby: but i still have an axe to grind with him and once i get my servers back up, he's going to get it  :butcher:
