This is certainly inspired by the Serbitar's Hacking thread that is currently blowing up.
What exactly is gained through the use of an Analyze or Exploit program and can you pass it to other Matrix entities? For instance, it stands to reason that if you use Exploit to gain access to a secure node, you could pass the codes or whatever to your agent that could then enter the node and start wreaking terror. By the same token, if your Sprite Analyzes a wireless node, can he pass whatever he's learned to you, then you can Spoof a Command? I assume that would be a simple action, transferring data.

Simple if not Free. I, as a GM, would have no issue with any of what you've described.
