Summary

Small time corporate espionage action in Renton. A combination of matrix shenanigans and a physical infiltration.

Background

"NeuroTech Solutions has been making a name for themselves on the market for their cutting edge VI algorithm technology. It's time to even the playing field through less than legal means. That's why I'm coming to you folks at Shadowhaven. Let's make a deal, shall we?"

The Meet

Mr. Johnson: "Your objective is twofold. First, you’ll plant some data—a little package we’ve prepared—on their main host. This data will paint them as thieves, liars, and, most importantly, reckless violators of corporate ethics. It’s all set to go, perfectly formatted to look authentic. The second part of your task involves their CEO, Liana Kaas. We want her implicated directly. You’ll need to plant the same incriminating material on her personal workstation. There very much is a clock running. You have forty-eight hours before my employer holds a press conference outing NeuroTech. The evidence needs to be planted before then. If you're caught on camera or cause a scene, we will deny you your payment. Are we clear?"

The Plan

Phase one - legwork, both matrix and magical. Phase two - Z hacked the commlink of a Neurotech employee in a bar which allowed for easier host access.

The Run

With some effort (data bomb and encryption) the file is planted in the host. Social infiltration with matrix and astral overwatch allowed the chip to be planted in the workstation.

Aftermath

The employer was happy and the team was paid.
