Want a way to reduce unnecessary bloodshed and completely transform the nature of business? It's as simple as a biomonitior.

If every person in a corporate facility is required to wear a biomonitor, a simple security protocol can be established by the data received. Any sign of physical violence, unexplained lapses in consciousness, death or any other set of criteria would immidiately set security to a red alert.

Suddenly that easy to take care of guard at the backdoor is a giant roadblock. Can't shoot him, can't knock him out, in fact you couldn't even scare him too much or the alert is sounded.

Going to convince that wageslave to steal some data for you by putting up his family at your "summer home"? He might go for it, but security is going to be watching him like a hawk when he walks in Monday morning with his blood pressure through the roof.

I've done this to several different groups and every time it completely changes their game plans. Way less shoot our way in and shoot our way out, and way more careful planning and stealth.

Some might say this diminishes the role of combat specialists but I find that it oppositely increases their role. If the first time you have to knock out a guard every available gun descends on your position, that street sammie is your only ticket out alive.
