Biogrpahy

In 2011, Fung was a senior design engineer for Cloudserve, Inc.. He was also the supervisor for the red team of the recently built IC Cloud, a cloud database storing classified information gathered by the U.S. intelligence community. His job was to exploit any vulnerabilities in the database and patch them. In secret, he was also helping his coworker Amanda Watson with gathering actionable intelligence due to ideological reasons. CHIBI later offered this information to Iranian and Russian intelligence, which then caused a series of attacks on special operations units stationed in Argentina and Syria.

Meanwhile, in Angola, a local rebel force attacks an offshore oil rig under construction by the Chinese. Chinese intelligence officer Chen Xing turns to Watson for information about the rebel force's whereabouts. Watson then ordered Fung to pinpoint the location of the rebels. Using this information, the PLA stages a surgical attack on the Angolan rebels, enabling Xing and Chinese intelligence to enter the auction.

The attack on the rebels attracts the attention of Director of National Intelligence Mary Pat Foley. She later finds out that the recent attacks in Argentina, Germany, Syria, and now Angola may have been the result of an intelligence breach within the IC Cloud. Foley questions Watson who imparts her suspicions on Fung. As a result, Foley orders a manhunt to capture and interrogate Fung. Watson later learned of this and ordered Fung's death so that he would not expose her, disguising his death as a suicide. Fung's death then prematurely ends Foley's investigation into the breach.
