That’s the job for these unlikely action heroes of the Internet age, where quick and curious minds are more important than strong 24 .

Carrera has created a mathematical formula(公式), to 28 easily the software structure of viruses. With it, he is better able to compare the many variants(变种) and families of malware(恶意软件). To his 29 , Chaliavski, it doesn’t even matter why someone would create a virus. All that 30 is the hunt.
