Panel 1

A bustling internet security company office. Large monitors displaying network data and a whiteboard filled with diagrams and notes. A young site admin, Sarah, is sitting at her desk, staring worriedly at her computer screen. Sarah (muttering to herself)

Sarah: Two severe vulnerabilities? This isn't a video game, it's my job.

Panel 2

Sarah and her colleague, Mark, in a small conference room. Mark is holding a large cup of coffee and looks equally stressed. Sarah (rolling her eyes)

Mark: Did you hear? We've got to patch everything before the hackers strike.

Sarah: Or we could just take a deep breath and start with the basics.

Panel 3

The same conference room, but now both Sarah and Mark are laughing. Sarah holds a notepad with a simple list: "Basic Security Checklist." Mark is looking at her, smiling. Sarah (smiling confidently)

Mark: You know, you're right. We've got this.

Sarah: We just need to take it one step at a time. Let's start with the firewall.

Highlight: Sarah's confident and reassuring tone, coupled with the realization that the solution is simpler than the panic suggests.
