The Queen They Buried

Aubree’s eyes darkened as she made a snap decision. “Issue an official announcement, reassure the users, offer compensation, and shut down all the

servers!”

Getting the servers attacked was a deadly threat. What worried Aubree most was that the attackers might plant a virus to target users and steal their data. If that happened, her company’s reputation would fall, Shutting down the servers would also case the tech team’s stress and help avoid further problems.

“Got it, I’ll take care of it right away!” Birgitte said. She hurried off to rally the team and put out the fires online, while Aubree stayed in the tech department, keeping a close eye on the situation.

The tech team wasn’t exactly new to this kind of thing. Ever since the company went public, cyberattacks have appeared from time to time. The only real difference was that earlier attacks were mostly minor issues. They always handled them fast, and sometimes the hackers didn’t even get past the firewall.

The PR team soon made an official statement. They offered a hefty compensation package and quickly got things under control online.

To make things even better, the tech team soon reported good news. They’d managed to drive the attackers off, shore up the firewall, and get the servers back up and running. They kept at it all night until sunrise, and only then was everything finally sorted out.

Aubree and Birgitte watched the tech team celebrating. “Looks like your new guy is a real asset,” Aubree said. Patrick had barely settled into his new role as supervisor. However, he was able to lead the tech team out of a crisis.
