SOFTWARE

 

  1. Matrix Simulation: Both CyberSpace Presentation and Personality Software are required to jack into the NET. The higher the personality level, the harder it is to dump and manipulate the user.
  2. Intrusion Software: These software are used against ICE or non-personality metrix constructs.
  3. Utilities: These are software which are not used against anything (like combat and intrusion software), but plainly to do various things.
  4. Combat Software: These are software that are used against other netrunners.
  5. SkillSoft: These are software that can be used with an internal computer and make the user know the skill at the level of the software.
