White hat versus Black Hat
A series of extremely high profile hacks have brought the Net to near anarchy. Following the recent attack of the Revelation Virus, companies have been investing heavily in so called "White Hat" hackers to protect their systems. At the same time, many more groups of anarchistic hackers have formed, using the technology used in Revelation as a starting point, and are trying once again to bring it all down. The Net is no longer safe - for protection Server admins must hire White Hat hackers to protect them. Black Hat hackers form into groups and launch organised attacks on major systems. Groups are infiltrated, spies are placed deep into these mysterious groups. Allegiances are formed and broken in the blink of an eyelid. Government agencies begin installing spy software on the major routers of the web, and hackers take them down just as fast.
