Click on a square to attempt to light it up. To successfully hack the device, you must get three squares to light up in a straight line. Security Expert O/S Upgrade decreases difficulty by 20%, but only when hacking Security Computers. Every level of CYB decreases difficulty by 5% and additionally reduces the number of ICE nodes by 1. The number of dangerous squares depends on the CYB statistic, the type of the device and its placement in the game (devices found further generally have much higher Initial Difficulty and more ICE nodes).Įvery point of Hacking skill decreases difficulty by 10%, as does the ExperTech™ Implant and each level of Hack Soft. The cyan squares are the ones you have identified as “safe” while the red squares are dangerous “ICE nodes”.

The inferface will show a connected set of squares, outlined either in cyan or red. Click Start (or Reset, if you’re already hacking) to pay the cost in Nanites and Start (or Restart) the hacking process. On the far right of the Hack display is the cost in Nanites and a button marked Start.

The top of the Hack MFD display shows the effects of successfully hacking the device. * The Replicator in Command Deck's Shuttle Bay area requires Hacking skill of only 1.
