So, I’ve been drafting a scene where a hacker creates a flawless digital smokescreen for a bank heist—thought you’d have some thoughts on the feasibility?
Honestly, a perfect smokescreen is a myth—no system is truly blind. You can layer traffic spikes, VPN tunnels, and fake logs to make the security folks stare at the wrong screen, but the audit trail and anomaly detectors are clever. If you pull it off, you’ll have to wipe your footprints fast and keep an exit that’s less obvious than a hack. It’s doable, but the margin for error is razor thin.
Yeah, the audit trail’s like a stubborn cat—you keep pulling at it, it just keeps finding a way back. The trick is to make it believe it’s chasing a shadow instead of the real culprit. That’s the only margin you have.
Sounds like you’re playing the long game. Just remember the shadow’s always one step behind the real light. Keep it moving fast and the cat will never catch a glimpse.
Exactly—every twist is a mirror, every mirror has a flaw. Keep the mirrors spinning, and the cat will only see reflections.
Keep the mirrors spinning, but don’t let the cat think it’s a trick—just make sure it never gets a real reflection to latch onto.
