I’ve just received an email from the infiltrator of Sector Seven, Agent X.

This is very cool. It went to my junk folder. I’m assuming it’s from the site although even though I’ve never entered my email on the site. I did send emails to the addresses exposed through the remote sector seven client though. That has to be where they got it. Very clever.

Agent X talks about a secret agenda and the need to expose it. Additionally, Agent X mentions that Dr. Howard may prove useful. See the full email after the jump.

Shortly after the email from Agent X, I received another email (after the jump) from S7 Security. This email says that there is a prankster that sent out the earlier email. They say they are a game company developing a 1st-person shooter involving giant robots. Nothing to see here. One anomoly is that the quotes are 3 and 2 and instead of apostrophes they use superscript 1. Not sure what that means but it’s got to mean something.

The old passwords thefirst7 and takara83 no longer work. Don’t fear though. In the first email from agent X the word NBETWO is in all caps. That is the new password. Logging in with this password takes you back in. There are 5 new things to note.

• New email from security to S7 staff.
  • Details that an ‘entity’ named agent X has infiltrated the email systems and declares Agent X public enemy number one (email after the jump).
  • Mentions operation Hungry Dragon (?)
• On the left, the white hard drive icon now functions. Double click it to reveal a pdf and 3 satellite video feeds.
  • The PDF describes a report to Agent Powers from Tiger Team 1, specifically John Ho.
    • The tiger team hacked the DoD’s Global Information Grid thanks to advanced routines in Megaman’s storage devices.
    • MILSATCOM is now providing hundreds of satellite feeds throughout the world.
    • If other NBE’s are discovered they will be reported here (pdf?)
    • They want to file a complaint about the new policy of no fast food deliveries.
  • The satellite feeds show satellite views of North Korea, Eastern Europe and the Asian Peninsula.
    • Doesn’t seem to be much substance, just some looping satellite video showing warships and some combat groups.
  • Additionally, on the warning icon at the bottom, there is a new video communication between Dr. Howard and Agent Powers.
    • He is angry that she went over his head.
    • She speaks of intel reports of invasion scenarios, no way to beat NBE’s. Powers says they need weapons, Howard says they need allies.
    • Powers then asks for analysis on new data.
      • Info from DoD
        • Howard says it looks like NBE 102
        • Howard: So they are here
        • Powers: Doing some kind of recon, searching for something.
        • Howard: You think it could be? Powers: Let’s hope not.
        • Powers: Just get me those weapons or we can kiss the human race goodbye.

Subject: They must be stopped.

You have been inside Sector Seven. Thanks to me.
You¹ve seen a glimpse of their secret agenda, but there is much, much more.
Enough to fill every hard drive in China. It is imperative that these operations be exposed to the world. With every passing second, the chances for the survival of the human race steadily decline. The peoples of the Earth must know the truth.
I believe this Dr. Howard may prove useful to the cause. Her research into NBETWO gives me some hope that we may have allies somewhere out there.
Unfortunately, we have no way of locating or contacting them at present.
I¹m afraid this cloak and dagger routine must continue for some time. For now, I ask only that you spread the word. They must change their ways.
In the future, however, I may call on you to take more drastic measures.
For those of you still loyal to Sector Seven, suck on it.
X marks the spot.

Sector Seven Industries would like to apologize for an e-mail you received earlier. We have a ³prankster² among our staff who likes to use our resources for frivolous endeavors. Don¹t worry, he¹s been disciplined severely.

But since this dialog has been opened up, we would like to take a moment to clear up any confusion and assuage any doubt about our organization.

We are a new computer game company currently developing a multi-platform 1st-person shooter involving giant robots. That¹s it. There¹s no government conspiracy. Giant robots aren¹t real. And we certainly don¹t have one in our possession.

Please ignore all future communications from our ³prankster,² who likes to go by the hacker handle ³Agent X.² If you receive any information from him, please let us know immediately. He¹s already on thin ice.

And just to be perfectly clear, the Earth is definitely not about to be invaded by non-biological entities. So there¹s no reason to panic.

Subject: Agent X e-mail

We have discovered that the entity calling itself ‘Agent X’ has infiltrated the Sector Seven e-mail system. This morning, he was able to create a new fully qualified domain address — which we have now deleted — and then broadcast a message originating from our internal mail user agent.

At this time, Agent X continues to elude Sector Seven Intelligence and his identity remains a mystery. Covert inquiries into other government agencies suggest that Agent X has been able to infiltrate the mainframes of CIA, FBI, DIA, DOE, and DOD, as well as Sector Seven. In further violation of national security laws, he has begun to disseminate these security codes to the public via the Internet.

Agent X’s operations make him a threat to international security. As of today, Agent X is to be considered Sector Seven’s public enemy number one. He has been officially marked for NEUTRALIZATION BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.

In the mean time, broadcast counter-information via all available channels. This tactic worked well after the 1983 leak as part of Operation: Hungry Dragon.
