Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hints
How can I get the password?
1 of 11: Start by picking up and reading the pocket secretary that's on the console to the right of the security hub computer.
2 of 11: Sneak back the way you came until you're back in the office area that's adjacent to the heavy rifle dude's hallway.
3 of 11: The first thing to do is shut off the two cameras in that hallway. Enter the office area's small security room, then access its security hub computer using the password DIODE (which you got from the above-mentioned pocket secretary).
4 of 11: Turn off the hallway's two cameras, then sneak over to either end of the hallway and watch for a chance to take down the heavy rifle dude.
5 of 11: There are two locked doors in the left (west) wall of that hallway. The code to one of them is back in the office area.
6 of 11: Use the unlocked computer that's on a desk near the small security room to get the code 0101, then try it on both of the hallways' doors.
7 of 11: You'll find that it works on the southern one. Unfortunately, you need to get into the room past the other one.
8 of 11: There are two ways to do that if you can't hack the other door's security device. One is to use the vent shaft that starts in the room past the code 0101 door. You'll first have to move the photocopier out of the way, which requires the arm augmentation that lets you move and throw heavy objects.
9 of 11: The other way is to bash through the weak wall section that's near the bottom of the stairs that you used to enter this area. If you don't have the "Punch Through Wall" arm augmentation, you'll have to shoot out the wall section. (That will probably alert the soldiers in the security area, but hopefully they won't sound the alarm.) Past the wall section, enter the vent shaft and go all the way to the end.
10 of 11: However you get into the other room, loot the desk's interactive drawer to get a pocket secretary with the password WIDGET on it.
11 of 11: Use that on the desk's computer to finally get the security hub password that you've been after.
