My point is that hackers usually try to get into productive servers. You cannot just shut them down for every hacker attack, or you would never be online. You need to keep the business running while at the same time defending from attacks, so while the top scenario has a bunch of technobabble, it is more realistic.
Remind me of a time where I was working in Asia and our instant messaging server went down because… it was a Windows server, the 2 elite IT guys were casually using it to go on Internet using the admin account to avoid all the limits put by the company (I guess porn…) and of course they managed to D/L a virus on the machine (I guess from a porn site…).
Root config to no? Real men use root as their primary account to go where no one has should never have gone before on Internet!!
Sorry, a kid in China tried to ssh into amazon.com, no shopping today!
After the ‘4’ incident my calibration for guessing if something like this is a joke is completely broken.

Just how do you expect to move the plot along!?!?
