Spoof
Spoof (Continuous or Single-Execution)
Default: Computer Hacking-3.
Base Complexity: 4.
Feed false information to an Analyze, Listen, or Search program.
Use Spoof to actively fool a program that’s looking for specific information, or to continuously masquerade as a legitimate user.
For example, if an Analyze program is set to monitor the status of an ICE program, Spoof can attempt to convince Analyze that the ICE is still up after it’s been Breached.
Analyze and Search can see through a Spoof if they win a Quick Contest against it; Listen only needs to tie the Contest to deny access through ICE, but gets no roll when simply recording Spoofed information.
This is one of the Hacking Programs.
