CHEZ DIESEL HIT BY BEER HACKERS
by Hazed
The most famous bar in the Solar System, Chez Diesel on Mars, has been hit by a hacking attack. But the cybercriminals haven’t targeted the bar’s data – no, they’ve gone after the beer!
In an audacious crime, the hackers tunnelled underneath Chez Diesel and tapped into the pipes that carry the famous ale Diesel’s Old Peculiar from the vats in the basement up to the pumps in the bar. Then, in a fiendish triple whammy of threats, they have:
- Siphoned off the beer and offered free drinks to all their friends
- Stolen the secret recipe for the proprietary ale, which they plan to publish
- Issued a ransom demand in which they threaten to stop the beer from flowing unless they are paid a large amount of groats – a denial of distribution attack!
In a statement, Diesel announced that she would refuse to give in to the criminals, who she referred to as “beer terrorists”. She has brought in experts from SpyNet to help secure her brewing operation and repel the infiltration of the hackers.
Diesel has also offered a reward to anyone who provides information that leads to the arrest of any of the beer hackers – free beer for life! So if you know anything about these miscreants, go to the bar and tell Diesel.
