"Chapter3" - читать интересную книгу автора (Carpenter Matthew)

The four sat around one of the tables in the back room at Hot
Kicks, a private club owned by Nebulus on the better side of town. It was
an almost middle class joint, if there was a middle class any more. If
there was it was called surviving with a little more. The joint was classy.
It was where all the sophisticated people went who wanted to see live
nude dancing and strippers that wouldn't make you vomit. There was
both male and female entertainment as well as artwork, decks,
holographics, laser shows and live or holographic music. It was a
hangout for artsy types, social groupies, or horny people. The room they
were in was behind all the glitter and glamour of the place. It was the
business area of the joint.

"Well, I guess I'll be the one to start things" spoke Jack, eagerly
wanting the meeting to begin so that he could get as much of a jump on
the project as possible. Being the netrunner of the group, he needed as
much prep time as possible, and the most info as well. "The project is
still scheduled to start on time in nine days. The beta testing that has
been going on over the past four months, has included over 25
businesses, 20 military installations, and 10 government sites. Successful
cracks were made in all cases and successful defense routines were
completed without problems. The people who will be in the nets will be
on life support for one month at a time. They will be receiving fluids,
muscle stimuli and other necessities while in the nets. They will be
connecting into the nets through a large comp that I suspect is a
supercomputer, but have not yet confirmed. With this type of computing
power, they will be able to bring a lot of software into the nets with them
and will be able to be monitored from outside, while still maintaining
contact with the others in the nets. ICE could never touch the killing
power that this could produce" Jack finished with a seriously straight
face.

"Cryon's physical security is very tight. My security firm is
presently supporting ten positions within the company, none of which
are located near this project. Security systems and facility maps are
located within the main system there, and should be breakable without
much trouble, once you get past the outer systems. I can arrange to have
two of our special tactics team help us with the break in. They're
specifically trained for this sort of thing and we have no records of them
at all."

"Yea, but can they be trusted?" darted Jack, obviously feeling the
pressure of breaking into a place this big, and going against an
operation of this magnitude.

"My people are loyal to me. As long as we keep them from the
truth and don't have them go all the way in, we should be ok. In any
case, they are expendable if problems arise. Are there any other
questions?" challenged Slash. She wouldn't have come up with the idea
if she didn't think it weren't safe, and she hated people who attacked her
judgments.
