February 16 at the United States will make training cyber attack

On Tuesday, February 16, at about 10 am, unknown cyber-terrorists will invade the US virtual space and launch a massive attack on American resources. Key players will gather in the White House’s discussion room and discuss responses, from mitigation to retaliation. The live broadcast from the meeting room will be broadcast on CNN. The CIA and FBI agencies have already begun preparations.

All of the above is true, with one clarification: the attack will be a training one, and it will become part of a television reality show called Cyber ​​ShockWave . Something like "Dancing on Ice", only about hackers.

Designers have already created an exact copy of the White House discussion room.

The program will be attended by professional security experts who must process incoming information and voice their assessments. That is, the cognitive element in this entertainment show is still present. Actually, the special services conduct their secret training games in a similar scenario. In general, for the first time, such studies will be broadcast live on television.

The show will be very realistic, with the participation of senior officers from the special services, as well as security consultants under the president, the former director of the NSA and other officials.

Sponsors of the event are several companies, including General Dynamics, one of the main contractors of the Ministry of Defense on orders related to the threat of cyberterrorism.
