-The Prophet- Thievery in TH getting out of hand.
Tech Haven, 12 October 2781.
Many of you runners have heard this before, thievery inside Techhaven.
Not once, not twice, no three times in a row have there been thefts at Phoenix Ltd.
Everyone is stunned how this could happen, how these thieves managed to bypass all security systems placed to prevent thefts.
‘We are very concerned about this’ Mr. Brammers said, ‘This has been the third theft in two months time, we can only hope we can get ourselves together again and continue our business at the same quality we are known for.’
We can only concur with that, so far our enemy’s have only made raids to our home, the killing is something that can be dealt with, they are problems but at least it is clear who is doing them, these thefts mean that there are actually spy’s in our very own faction.
The Techhaven department of security has done extensive investigations on the matter and where only able to point out one suspect, they where not willing to make the name public yet as investigations are still being done but we all hope this is in fact the thief we have been looking for so that we can put this behind us. ‘We are getting closer and closer but this thief is good, this is not some crime, we are sure this is an organized group of people, most likely international’ So their spokesman said.
The security department has requested that any information that could lead to the capture and liquidation of the thief be send to one of the investigators, Sir [TgR]Killer, Mr. Zane Shadowfall, Mr.Garett or any of Phoenix staff in charge, Mr. Brammers and/or Mr. Thonkus.
Lets all give them our very best, maybe some runners can spare some parts and blueprints for vehicle or turret design to get phoenix back on the road while everyone keeps a close eye on who this thief is.
So far this has fortunatly been a contained incedent but other company's and even clans could be next.
We spoke with Sciencelab Omega about possible sollutions:
Harold: "Cant we create a system to prevent incidents like this in the future?"
Omega lab: "Yes we've been thinking about that for some time, the problem is the current operating system designed by Tangent, it limitates our options as we don't have full access to the source of the system."
Harold: "How come we still use the Tangent Operating System?"
Omega lab: "That has to do with compatibility, we offcourse need to be compatible with the system used around the world, otherwise we would loose many of our trade options."
Harold: "So its not possible to make it compatible?"
Omega lab: "Not atm no, we've been looking into it for a while now, they made some intresting moves on protecting there system from the decompilers we've tried so far, its far better than the protection they used to protect the system from hacks, we are unfortunatly not sure what it is like, which makes it even harder to break"
Harold: "Basicly that means we need tangent to help us, which is out of the question till some other faction needs it to...we'll see if this information reaches some people with influence at Tangent. Can you tell us something about the systems you had in mind to prevent theft?"
Omega lab: "We'll sure, its actualy realy simple, you know that every company and clan have certain levels which they can give to there employe's and members. These levels could be connected to the cabinets creating the option to give only certain runners access to the cabinets. We could extend this into creating an extra program to select special levels for certain cabinets and if realy needed adding options like giving certain selected runners access regardless of level"
Harold: "That sounds promising, I hope you breake that OS code of Tangent, or that they come around and design it for everyone to use. Thank you for the interview and good luck."
After this refreshing interview, maybe some people with the right connections will be willing to make some wheels turn.
