Uplink Hints
Elliptic Curve
1 of 4: This is the least used entry type protection. There are about eleven systems that'll be using this kind of protection throughout the game. Four special systems and (about) seven banks.
2 of 4: Once again, there is one software application that can be used to crack it.
3 of 4: This type of security can only be overrun by simply calculating the curve by brute force. Due to the massive amount of data involved, you will require a speedy Gateway.
4 of 4: You will also need to purchase a Decypher tool. The newer versions simply crack the curve faster.
