A Matrix Question on Nodes Interloping Options

[Smirnov]

I'm a bit sloppy on the issue of matrix nodes and their interconnection, so i need an advice.

The situation is as follows:
There is a corporation with it's own nodes, network, security, etc. There's an employee of the said corporation, who uses his own satellite uplink from inside the corp building (he somehow smuggled the commlink with the uplink into the building) to access the matrix (via VR if it matters) and conducts some private communications. The question is can the corpsec monitor these communications, how can they do it if they can, and why can't they if they can't?

Do you mean "monitor" as in they already know, and just want to listen in? Or does that include needing to find out?

They can find out by doing Scan for Hidden Nodes (assuming this guy is not brain-damaged, he'll be in Hidden). They'd have to check for hidden nodes, but it's not that hard to scan every now and then.

They can listen in with Intercept Wireless Signal.

[Smirnov]

Well, they don't know for sure, but they are suspicious and keep an eye on the employee.
So, detecting the communications made via satellite uplink is no different from detecting any other communications?

[UmaroVI]

Right. A sat uplink is just a high Signal wireless device.

And if there is Wifi inhibiting paint, then the signal goes nowhere so he takes his toy and goes home or finds an area not blocked by the paint to set up the SAT link and then runs a wire to someplace inside the painted area.
