What security systems do I need to hack?
1 of 3: The security ranges from mediocre to high.
2 of 3: You will need to bypass a Monitorsystem (usually Level 5), Password protectionand (sometimes a Voice IDcheck) to get in. See the Mainframe section if your target's a mainframe.
3 of 3: You will need to bypass a Firewallsystem to copy the files. There will also be a Proxy system, but you can simply ignore that as you won't be changing or deleting anything.
