If there is a hacker organization whose members can span between software vendors, security vendors, and hackers, and have a legal identity, then the organization will be the Carrot Alliance.

The Carrot Alliance is probably the most peculiar hacker organization in the world. All its members are channel customers and end customers of the organization. These members sell their 0days to carrots, and at the same time buy other 0days from carrots.

In the carrot transaction records, you can often see software companies and technicians of security companies sell vulnerabilities in their products to hackers for profit, and you can also see hackers sell vulnerabilities to software vendors and security vendors, making these products more secure and reliable. This is an organization that is aggregated purely for profit.

Since its establishment for six years, Carrot Alliance has always aimed at building the world's largest 0day trading platform. It has now become a super hacker group with member groups in more than 40 countries around the world. Last year alone, the sales of 0days traded by Carrot Alliance reached 900 million US dollars, and on average, several security vulnerabilities of different levels are traded every day. As for the benefits obtained by hackers who re-using these 0days, they are so huge that they cannot calculate.

But such a strange organization has gained a legal status openly.

Whether it is the Black Hat Conference or the White Hat Conference, all major global security conferences in recent years are indispensable to all the Carrot Alliance. They use their members' voice in the security industry to loudly call for the establishment of a legal vulnerability trading platform, claiming that this will make security controllable.

At the beginning of this year, the Carrot Alliance finally got what it wanted. More than a dozen world-class software vendors joined their trading platform. In the future, any vulnerabilities involving the software vendors under these software vendors will not be allowed to be traded on the Carrot Platform, but can only be traded to software vendors. The Carrot Alliance's status in the hacking world was extremely transcendent, and it grasped the money bags of many hackers.

Carrot people know very well that if they cannot keep the security risks of those software providers within a controllable range, the support they receive now will be lost at any time. So after obtaining the support of the software provider, Carrot immediately started a new plan.

They used their members' voice and influence to launch a vigorous action in the security industry, resisting the release of 0days for free in any form. This directly led to the serious lack of technical content in many security conferences this year. Everyone sat in the venue to imagine the future, but there was nothing they actually ordered. Carrots even began to crack down on loophole transactions in other channels. Several hackers who privately peddled 0days online have been sent to small black rooms by Carrots.

Carrot's series of behaviors are extremely domineering. It forces all loophole transactions to be carried out on his own platform. Even if you don't want to make this money and want to publish the loopholes in your hands for free, that's not OK.

Half a year ago, Wolf Neighbor announced that it would release ten 0days for free when the summit was held. Carrot immediately sent someone to verify and confirmed that four of the ten 0days involved software vendors on their platform. One of them was the most serious vulnerability, so he warned Wolf Neighbor not to publish these vulnerabilities.

Of course, the wolf den does not pee the carrot. No matter how powerful the radish is, its sphere of influence is limited to Europe and the United States. He can't get into the domestic black circle for the time being. Unexpectedly, a The9 came out to make trouble. This The9 is likely to be the spokesperson for carrots in China.

"Good!"

Hu Yifei pinched his thigh hard and confirmed that he was not reading a fairy tale. He was a little stunned. He didn't expect that there was such a monster in the hacker circle. This introduction to carrots from Sugar Fried Chestnut surprised him so much.

This is definitely comparable to open source organizations. The hackers of open source organizations are crying for open source and fighting for open source, and they are people summoned by their purpose and ideas. This carrot also has its own purpose and ideas. This is a loophole specialty.

"Although the competition is calm today, the news I got from Wolf Teeth that they carefully deployed has been captured more than 700 servers. The9 is likely to be waiting for a suitable opportunity to completely mess up the Wolf Summit!" Hanhaobi continued to report the news he heard from his friends.

Hu Yifei scratched his head and thought to himself, what's the use of telling me about these things? Whether the Wolf Summit will smash it or not has a ball or something to do with me, that's all the matter of the masters, "Okay, I understand!" Hu Yifei replied casually.

Seeing that the second head of the army had no words at all, Hanhao Bird became a little anxious and said, "Second leader, you announced that you will attend the Wolf Summit. Many of my friends are waiting to listen to your teachings at that time. The9 grandsons secretly sabotaged you, it is really too disgrace to give you face!"

Hu Yifei was almost choked to death. The candy-fried chestnuts were so pure. He regarded himself as a master. He was a no-no, so he would turn off his phone. I said that attending the Wolf Summit was just to respond to the call of his idol Hanhun and respond to the situation. Do you really expect to listen to those masters' vernacular books of 100, 8 chapters? That's not to be looking for inferiority! If it were Xiaole's words, I might still consider it. I still listen to the teachings. What can I teach? If I tremble and turn off the machine, I will cry to death.

Hanhaoniao knew that the second head of the second head was going to attend the Wolf Summit, and secretly fooled a group of people to attend, not the wolf's nest, but the second head of the second head. He thought that since the second head of the second head was here to attend the summit, it would definitely not be empty-handed. As long as he could give him some advice, he would definitely improve his level.

Unexpectedly, something that was smooth, but a little Jiujiu jumped out of the way. This made Hanhao Bird very unhappy. He didn't take The9 seriously, but he wouldn't offend people easily, especially behind the Ninth Organization there was a carrot standing behind the Ninth Organization. Now the wolf nest is holding on and not sending a letter of help, Hanhao Bird has no reason to stand up for others. Seeing that the Wolf Summit is about to be ruined, he came up with the idea of ​​the Second Head. As long as the Second Head can stand up and snort, he will do his best to make trouble for the troublemaker. "Second leader, I can't even stand this matter. I have many friends in the hacker circle. As long as you say something, I promise to call on a large group of people to you, and I will definitely beat The9 to regret it!"

Hu Yifei didn't expect that this candy fried chestnut was really persistent. He was embarrassed to say that he was not a master. If he had such a loyal fan, it would prove that he had a strong personality charm! Hu Yifei could put a layer of gold on his face in his usual scandals. Now when he encountered beautiful things, he naturally didn't want to expose it. Hu Yifei grabbed his head and thought about how to deal with the candy fried chestnut so that he would not hurt his tender star-chasing heart. After thinking for a long time, Hu Yifei gave a very tough sentence, "Isn't it just a ninth organization, just a little minion, what's the point of hitting them?"

The Han Bird suddenly heard the sound and realized his intentions, saying, "Is the second leader ready to beat the carrot?"

"Yeah!" Hu Yifei had to continue lying, thinking that a little rookie like a candy-fried chestnut can only listen to friends talking about carrots, and it was impossible to get on line with carrots. He said, "It's just that I'm not familiar with them. Please tell them something for me. If Xiaojiu dares to disturb my wolf summit, I will pickle their carrots!"

Hanhao was very excited, "Okay, the second leader, I will know what to do if you say this!" After saying that, he forgot to pay his respects to the second leader and went offline and flee.

"Isn't this kid really a way?" Hu Yifei was stunned. Oh, what if this kid really sent a message to the carrots and he couldn't pickle the carrots himself back!

After scratching his ears and heads for a long time, Hu Yifei sighed, "What a pity, a great superstar is rising, but it was overturned by a cow!" Depressed, the cow was blown up by himself.

(It's done in two days today! Moving today, I've updated a chapter in the middle of the night yesterday. I thought I could finish it in the afternoon, but I didn't expect to finish it until 8 o'clock in the evening. I didn't have to clean it up, so I quickly updated this chapter. Please forgive me, book friends!)
Chapter completed!
