I'm still pretty new to the hacking thing, but I have a street sam and I want to make sure he, his commlink, and his cyber accessories are safe from any external intrusion. I know that firewall 6 and encryption 6 are musts. I have electronics skill group, so I could make sure my cyber is clustered as a DNI to my commlink, protected by strong encryption, making it very hard to hack on the fly. Is there some simple agent programs that could be run to help prevent hacking as well? Also, what programs are needed and what can I do without? Should I even take any hacking programs? Or is it better to invest in a good IC program for defense?
