It's pretty straightforward to get your commlinked hacked or hack someone elses. In fact given enough time it's almost impossible to stop.
Now I figure the reason corp systems don't get hacked by everyone with a decent stealth program and hacking 1 is because they have tiered systems. You can spend hours at the basic system(which may also have usefull stuff sometimes) but once you get inside and start on the next tier you run the risk of running into always active IC, Agents, or security deckers keeping an eye on the place. I was wondering if something like that is possible with personal comlinks. You have one comlink with all your stuff on it. Than attach it to a second via fibre and use the second comlinks wireless. In the second comlink is just a very mean always active IC looking for people trying to access the primary comlink (give it periodic matrix perception tests or something against a hacker). Does all that sound right? I'm just making the transition to SR4 now. |
