Nah that's for amateurs what you really need is an elite team who can type very fast and if you're enterprise is really worth it's salt it'll have a few of these guys and that way you can have 2 or if they're really good 3 to a keyboard at a time. With their combined speed they'll have setup a Visual Basic GUI and hacked your cyberattacker's IP in no time. With the attack stopped in a minute at most they'll have surveillance camera tape footage available for enhancement and from that the basement dweller's abode by lunchtime. The constabulary will be knocking down their door so fast they'll never smash their monitor in time to get rid of the evidence.

Don't forget the step where you ram your fingers in between the cables desperately trying to push the tiny plastic clips on as many as possible.

Pull hard enough those clips don’t matter

How do you know those cables don't have the retaining clips removed to make them easier to pull out? If that's the case all you need to do is pull them.

They tend to pry out of the connectors all the time if no clip is present.

Just pull from the power outlet, easy and fast

Or even better idea, cut the power to the entire building... you know, in case someone's PC gets hacked as well :D

EMP from orbit.

I'd just skip this box and pull the one cable coming from the demarc.

We have an EPO (Emergency Power Off) button that shuts the power off for the entire data center.

We also call that button the "I Quit Button"

More importantly: is that a fridge those servers are in?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks like, so for the uninitiated, the problem is that a fridge does not get rid of moisture, so there would be a ton of condensation on the circuits of the servers and you know servers + water = bad

Keep tossing in those silica gel packs. Then when they're saturated with water, eat them and replace with new packs.
